TSK · 2 Samuel 1:17

When the Canaanites who lived in the land saw them mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said,“This is a very sad occasion for the Egyptians.” That is why its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.

The king chanted the following lament for Abner:“Should Abner have died like a fool?

I mourned for them as I would for a friend or my brother. I bowed down in sorrow as if I were mourning for my mother.
