Verse 4 is found in chapter 1 of 1 Kings. The book begins with David in his old age, when he can no longer maintain the vigor that characterized much of his reign. The search for a young woman to serve him reveals the king’s physical weakness and prepares the succession dispute. The narrative detail contrasts with David’s former greatness and indicates that the kingdom’s stability will now depend on who occupies the throne.
