SEV Biblia, Chapter 2:24

Mas Joab y Abisai siguieron a Abner; y se les puso el sol cuando llegaron al collado de Amma, que está delante de Gía, junto al camino del desierto de Gabaón.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 24. Joab also and Abishai pursued after Abner , etc.] Or rather but Joab, etc. f37 . They stood not still as the rest, but, filled with indignation and resentment, pursued after Abner, to be avenged on him: and the sun went down when they came to the hill of Ammah ; a hill by the side of which was a pool of water, as Kimchi thinks, and from thence so called: that [lieth] before Giah ; a place near Gibeon, but nowhere after mentioned: by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon ; very likely not far from the city from which it had its name.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 18-24 - Death often comes by ways we least suspect. We are often betrayed by the accomplishments we are proud of! Asahel's swiftness, which he presumed so much upon, did him no service, but hastened his end.
