Israel At Peace Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Nov 30, 2003

This part of 2 Samuel is really about God as the king, giving David the human king what he promised. It shows us David trusting God’s kingship, caring for Mephibosheth, not seeing him as a threat to what God gave him.

Things That Are So Easy To Do

David was a man after God’s own heart yet he sinned on many occasions. His most grievous sin was probably his affair with Bathsheba and the murder of her husband Uriah. David found out just how easy it is to sin and to displease God.

It not only records their good deeds and testimony worthy of our example, but also their failures and sin which were written for our admonition and warning.

Trouble In The King's Household Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 3, 2004

As great a king as David was, he was still a human king with all the flaws of any human being. It would take the coming of Jesus before we had a king who truly reflected God’s heart in all he did; whose leadership would fully reflect God’s character.

What we’re looking at today is not pretty. Incest, rape, murder, political intrigue leading to a coup d’état, David running for his life. And again we wonder what to make of it all.
