At the time of Absalom's revolt he deserted David (Psa 41:9; Psa 55:12) and espoused the cause of Absalom (Sa2 15:12). David sent his old friend Hushai back to Absalom, in order that he might counteract the counsel of Ahithophel (Sa2 15:31).","tags":["Biblical Names and Places","Biblical Reference","Easton's Bible Dictionary"],"text":null,"title":"Easton's Bible Dictionary","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":632}
