Because she was a virgin. She was modest [and stayed] in the house and did not go outside therefore, "It was hidden from the eyes of Amnon… It was covered and hidden from him. What excuse he could seek [in order] to lay with her.¹According to Rashi, the words in our verse, “because she was a virgin” do not tell us why Amnon was desirous of her. The reason for his desire was because she was pretty. Rashi consequently explains that these words are telling us why she was inaccessible to Amnon and are connected to the words that follow, “it was hidden in the eyes of Amnon” to find a way to lay with her. Similar to "When it is concealed from you",²Devorim 17:8. [which] Onkelus translates: "When it is hidden from you."

Amnon hated her. Our Rabbis say she tied a hair for him [in his genital area] and caused him to have a severed organ.⁶One who is so injured is prohibited from marrying a Jewish woman as related in Devorim 23:2. This interpretation of our verse is in Sanhedrin 21a.

Do not do this thing. Do not do this evil thing of sending [me] away which is worse then the other [evil thing] that you did to me. You raped me and then you added on more evil than that by sending me away.

Will not come with us. If you can not go, let Amnon go with us.

This has been Avsholom's order. By Avsholom's command was this order bestowed on his servants to kill Amnon.

Dovid desired. This is a shortened verse, [it means to say:] "Dovid's soul desired." Yonoson also translates [this way:] "Dovid's soul desired," as [we find:] "[My Soul] yearns, and even pines."⁷Tehilim 84:3. Language [denoting] desire.
