2 Samuel 13:23-29
Verse 23 Absalom had sheep-shearers - These were times in which feasts were made, to which the neighbors and relatives of the family were invited. Verse 26 Let my brother Amnon go - He urged this with the more plausibility, because Amnon was the first-born, and presumptive heir to the kingdom; and he had disguised his resentment so well before, that he was not suspected.
