"And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given is not good at this time."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And Hushai said to Absalom,.... Having leave to give his opinion freely: the counsel that Ahithophel hath given is not good at this time; he owns that Ahithophel was a
good counsellor, and that the counsel he gave was for the most part, if not always, good, but what he gave at this time was not so; the wisest of men may sometimes be mistaken. Abarbinel thinks he respects his former counsel, particularly that that was good, advising him to defile his father's bed, Sa2 16:21 ; but this was not, for which he gives the following reasons.
