Barnes's 2-samuel 17:24 Bible Commentary

Mahanaim - See 2 Samuel 2:8. The same reasons which induced Abner to choose it for Ishbosheth probablv made it a good rallying point for David. It was a strong city, in a well-provisioned country, with a mountainous district for retreat in case of need, and with a warlike and friendly population.

Wesley's 2-samuel 17:24 Bible Commentary

17:24 Passed - Not speedily, but when all the men of Israel were gathered together according to Hushai's counsel.
