2 Samuel 19:6 meaning

In considering the emotional turmoil of King David following the death of his son Absalom, we witness a remarkable struggle between personal grief and the responsibilities of leadership. David's deep mourning was perceived as a dismissal of the valiant efforts of his soldiers, who had risked their lives to secure his throne. Joab, the commander of David’s forces, confronted him, urging that the king's actions demonstrated a troubling preference for his enemies over his loyal followers. This is encapsulated in Joab's poignant accusation that David loved those who opposed him and neglected the loyalty of his friends.
