Did Shlomo impose a Shevu'ah on Shim'i?

1.

Radak: Here it is revealed that he did. Even though it is not mentioned above, Shim'i did not deny this.

2.

Radak citing his father: The command of a king is like a Shevu'ah - "Ani Pi Melech Shemor v'Al Divras Shevu'as Elokim" (Koheles 8:2).

2)

Why did he say mention that the Shevu'ah was with Hashem's name?

1.

Malbim: You should have meticulously guarded it, and not sought doubtful Heterim (based on two possible ways of interpreting my words - refer to 2:37:1:1, 2:40:1:1).

3)

What is the meaning of "va'A'id Becha"?

1.

Rashi: I warned you.

2.

Radak: I did not warn you just between the two of us, for then you could deny it. I told you in front of others!

4)

Why does it say "Tov ha'Davar Shamati"?

1.

Malbim: You accepted the Shevu'ah based on my intent.
