2 Samuel13:34

34 But Absalom fled . And the young man that kept the watch lift up his eyes, and looked, and behold, there came much people by the way of the hill side behind him .

He who had undertaken to defend his Servants, flies for his own life.

Behind the watch-man: for it seems they did not come in the direct Road, where the watchman looked for them, but (for some reason or fancy they had) fetched a compass, and come that way which he least expected them.
