פירוש על שמואל ב 17:10

Even if he is a soldier. That person who hears [about the disaster] even if he is a soldier and his heart is like that of a lion his heart will surely melt in fear and trepidation. And he will no longer join you because he will say, "He [Avsholom] has already started to fall and he is being punished for [what he did to] his father and he will not succeed.
