John Gill Commentary 2 Samuel 2:24

"But Joab and Abishai pursued after Abner: and the sun went down when they were come to the hill of Ammah, that lieth before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon." — 2 Samuel 2:24 (ASV)

Joab also and Abishai pursued after Abner
Or rather but Joab ^F14 . They stood not still as the rest, but, filled with indignation and resentment, pursued after Abner, to be avenged on him:

and the sun went down when they came to the hill of Ammah ;
a hill by the side of which was a pool of water, as Kimchi thinks, and from thence so called:

that [lieth] before Giah ;
a place near Gibeon, but nowhere after mentioned:

by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon ;
very likely not far from the city from which it had its name.
