Wesley's Notes for 2 Samuel 1:27

1:25 Thine - Which were in thy country, and (had not thy father disinherited thee by his sins) in thy dominions.

1:26 Distressed - That is, for the loss of thee. For, besides the loss of a true friend, which is inestimable; he lost him who both could, and undoubtedly would have given him a speedy, and quiet, and sure possession of the kingdom, whereas now, he met with long and troublesome interruptions. Of women - That is, that love wherewith they love their husbands, or children for their affections are usually more ardent than mens.
