The burial of Abner was attended with public honors. The army, with Joab at their head, were
required to take part in the services of mourning, with rent garments and clothed in sackcloth. The king manifested his grief by keeping a fast upon the day of burial; he followed the bier as chief mourner; and at the grave he pronounced an elegy which was a cutting rebuke of the murderers. The king lamented over Abner, and said:

"Died Abner as a fool dieth?
Thy hands were not bound,
Nor thy feet put into fetters:
As a man falleth before wicked men,
So fellest thou
."
2 Samuel 3:33
David's magnanimous recognition of one who had been his bitter enemy won the confidence and admiration of all Israel.
David was arrayed in the royal robe. The sacred oil was put upon his brow by the high priest. The time had come, and David, by solemn rite, was consecrated to his office as God's vicegerent. The scepter was placed in his hands.
