And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried still at Jerusalem.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 1 is found in chapter 11 of 2 Samuel. While kings go out to war, David remains in Jerusalem and from the roof sees Bathsheba bathing. The narrative progressively describes how seeing becomes desire, inquiry, and finally action. Bathsheba becomes pregnant, creating a situation David will attempt to conceal. The introduction to the episode emphasizes that the problem begins not only with adultery, but with the irresponsible use of power and the king’s decision to take what he desires.
