2 SAMUEL 17:7 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given is not good at this time.”
Then Hushai said to Absalom, This time the counsel that Ahithophel has given is not good — Hushai directly contradicts Ahithophel, creating doubt about his wisdom. The phrase *lo* *tov* *hapamata* *hazzot* (this counsel is not good) is a bold negation. Hushai must now prove why Ahithophel's seemingly sound advice should be rejected.
