old David was probably now about {sixty-nine} years of age. He was {thirty} years old when he began to reign, reigned {forty}, and {died} in his {seventieth} year; and the transactions mentioned here are supposed to have taken place about a year before his death. Sixty-nine was not an advanced age; but he had been exhausted with various fatigues, and especially family afflictions, so that he was much older in constitution than in years. 2Sa 5:4 1Ch 23:1 29:27,28 Ps 90:10

and stricken in years [heb] and entered into days. Ge 18:11 24:1 Jos 23:1,2 Lu 1:7
