- 2 Samuel 17:27
When David came to Mahanaim, he was met by Shobi son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, Machir son of Ammiel from Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim.
Commentary on 2 Samuel 17:272 voices
Shobi - Who, as it may seem, disliked and disowned that barbarous action to the ambassadors; and therefore, when the rest were destroyed, was left king or governor of the residue of the Ammonites.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
Shobis father may have been the king of the Ammonites, and Shobi appointed by David as tributary king or governor of Ammon after he took Rabbah 2Sa 12:29. On the other hand, Nahash may have been a common name among the Ammonites, and the Nahash of 2Sa 17:25 may have been of that nation. On Machir, see the marginal reference.
