At the time of [[Text:EBD:Absalom|Absalom]]'s revolt he deserted [[Text:EBD:David|David]] (Ps. 41:9; 55:12-14) and espoused the cause of Absalom (2 Sam. 15:12). David sent his old friend [[Text:EBD:Hushai|Hushai]] back to Absalom, in order that he might counteract the counsel of Ahithophel (2 Sam. 15:31-37). This end was so far gained that Ahithophel saw he had no longer any influence, and accordingly he at once left the [[Text:EBD:Camp|camp]] of Absalom and returned to [[Text:EBD:Giloh|Giloh]], his native place, where, after arranging his wordly affairs, he hanged himself, and was buried in the [[Text:EBD:Sepulchre|sepulchre]] of his [[Text:EBD:Father|fathers]] (2 Sam. 17:1-23). He was the type of [[Text:EBD:Judas|Judas]] (Ps. 41:9). {{returnto}} [[Easton's Bible Dictionary]]
