Matthew Poole and continuators on 2 Samuel 3:7

For this was that which stirred up his Jealousie and Rage, and caused him to speak that to Abner which otherwise he neither would nor durst. But whether Abner were guilty or no, it is not evident from the following words: for if it were true, great men cannot endure to be told of their faults, though they be true and great.
