And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given is not good at this time.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 7 is found in chapter 17 of 2 Samuel. Ahithophel proposes pursuing David immediately with a small force and attacking while he is weakened. Hushai presents an alternative strategy that exaggerates David’s military strength and recommends gathering all Israel. Absalom and his advisers prefer the second plan. The narrator explains that God had determined to frustrate Ahithophel’s counsel. Providence appears here through ordinary political decisions, causing a seemingly convincing strategy to be rejected.
