"The king said to Shimei, "You shall not die." The king swore to him."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
Therefore the king said unto Shimei, thou shalt not die,.... This day by my hands, or order, or by the sword, Kg1 2:8 , and the king sware unto him;
that he should not die for that offence, or for that only; but if he committed a new one, this oath was no longer binding on him, and not at all upon his heir and successor.
