Just as David was coming to the top of the Mount of Olives where God was being worshipped, there was Hushai the Archite to meet him, with his coat ripped and dust all over his head!

When David's friend Hushai the Archite approached Absalom, Hushai greeted Absalom, "Long live the king! Long live the king!"

Absalom replied, "Call in Hushai the Archite so I can hear what he has to say, too!"

Absalom and all of the Israelis replied, "The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than Ahithophel's!"
