| II Samuel 13:3 | Now Amnon had a friend, named Jonadab, the son of Semmaa, the brother of David, a very wise man: | A very wise man. That is, a crafty and subtle man: for the counsel he gave on this occasion shews that his wisdom was but carnal and worldly. (Challoner) --- Jonadab seems to be styled Jonathan, 2 Kings 21:21.
