2 Sam. 16:15• 15Now Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him. (2 Sam. 16:15)
• Hushai has another character, one just as beautiful in its way as that of Ittai and, indeed, he is much better acquainted with God's thoughts. Hushai is David's intimate friend; a great love unites them and they have no secrets from one another but yet Hushai in contrast to Ittai consents to be separated from his friend for a time. (“2 Samuel 16” by W. Kelly)
• If the Lord sends us into the midst of enemies let us go without fear. Is not defeating Ahithophel's counsel really restoring to our David the place that belongs to Him? (“David's Flight: 2 Samuel 15” by H.L. Rossier)
• Demonstrations of devotion are not enough, however dear they may be to the master's heart, but are only the prelude to service. So it is for us Christians; and like Hushai and the priests, we do not have the option of choosing the place or the manner in which we are to serve the Lord. He will decide this. (“Service: 2 Samuel 17” by H.L. Rossier)
