"Hushai said to Absalom, "The counsel that Ahithophel has given this time is not good.""
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.
