Remember, this is a man that we can all relate to, no matter how good we think we are, we are all capable of this. “A man after my own heart,” is the way God describes him. He’s a man that was chosen, a man that fell, and a man that was redeemed through the Father. More than anything this is a real account of Gods redemption and how God has a history of using human beings for His Glory. God doesn’t make mistakes and King David shows the perfect representation of what repenting and turning from sin looks like.
But that’s didn’t mean that the consequences of his actions didn’t impact those around him especially his children. Amnon his eldest raped his sister Tamar so Absolom murdered him…and other things happened as well. What he did cost him a lot that why we should learn what to do and not to do from these peoples stories.
Job was nothing like him according to your own book so when you say we all can fall for this like david did your vainly trying to manipulate human minds into thinking that because you and David would betray your oath to God over a woman that all men would if tempted NO MAN ON EARTH HAS BEEN TRIED AND TEMPTED LIKE JOB WAS AND HE DID NOT FALL ON HIS FACE LIKE DAVID DID!
@@stephanieturner-rodriguez8314 I think this person is just trying to encourage anyone who has fell into this sin and to break any division that says I'm not that bad, bc we are all capable of this. And adultery is more than sex, the lust of the eyes lead David to sin, adultery is putting anything before God, so we all have did this and if we say we never have than we lie, there is a spiritual aspect to each story as well.
So unloyalty bred more unloyalty between the children of his. Lust became hereditary. David reap what he sowed. Sometimes we don’t pay for sins directly, it effects those around us.
HI My initial thoughts about this is to very mindful of what you ask for and seek outside the Will of God's sovereign Will according to His statutes of Holiness.
We should not allow ourselves to be taken captive by the temptations of the world. Today many young Christians are developing an interest in the occult by watching movies, reading books and playing video games that promote sorcery and witchcraft. I woke up one morning to see my dad burning all my Harry Potter books on the BBQ grill. I was very upset at first, but then he looked at me with sorrow in his eyes and asked me; "Do you love these books more than Jesus"???. I was very taken aback at his question. I did not understand why I could not love Jesus and Harry Potter. My dad then read to me the story of Elisha, and how he slaughtered his oxen after he was called to be a prophet. The moral of the story was that, you need to get rid of anything that may hinder your walk with Christ. If Elisha had not slaughtered his oxen, he may have been tempted to return to his former life and abandon his mission for God. My obsession with Harry Potter was causing me to develop an unhealthy interest in the occult and witchcraft, and this was endangering my relationship with Jesus.
I'm so glad you chose Christ ... over Harry Potter! I too, had a similar thing happen, in that before I was saved I poured over every Stephen King book that came out. I later poured myself into reading the whole Bible instead. God bless!!!

Such a painful story this...I really admire Uriah...Strange are the ways of our GOD indeed...I always feel our GOD is very Egoistic...But, i am just a speck of dust, of HIS creation...Thank you GDN...Amen.
What was God to do? Control every single action of David and Bathseba? Or maybe just kill any and everyone that committed a sin? I believe Uriah served the God of Isreal, and will be welcomed to Abrahams bosom. David, Bathseba, and those who helped this plot, on the other hand, dearly paid for their sins here on Earth. Carrying with them the ramifications of their (forgiven) sin.
Thank you for your presentation. It helped me in my understanding of the biblical account. To have another person recite the account is like it was recounted by many of that era telling the account through oral communication. Yes your visual portion was not available at that time so I attempted to ignore that as you spoke. Unfortunately, I could relate my life to David's although not with taking another person's life but the temptation of a beautiful woman and how sin such as this leads to destruction of those you love.
We nottice that David was already heading in a not so good direction before falling into sin. Also gathering together with other believers can be important, it even says in the bible we should, love you guys, God bless you all!
David went after this woman. He was supposed to be away at war, but stood on the balcony lusting after her! He *knew* she was married to another man and he had so many other wives he could have taken his need for gratification to. Why did he not turn away? *Pride* is the answer. Women were chattel during those days. How much say did she have? This story needs to be seen in the context of time it occurred. I also don’t agree with how the woman is depicted in the thumbnail… I am grateful that *Psalms 51* came out of this situation though. It is a powerful prayer and has helped me approach a Holy God when I have sinned.🇨🇦
I Concur!! she might have not be comfortable with his advances towards her, but he was her King...so of course she had to obey?? He called for her, summoned her, she never 'seduced' him!
she was also manipulative. She played in the adultery. Why didn't she reject it and told him that he has a husband? Why didn't she run away? They are both at fault and consented to their adultery. @@morganreigns1984
What happened in David's family is not so much punishment for his sins of adultery and murder, but the consequences of those evil deeds. Remember that God pardoned David's sins but did not remove the consequences for those sins. The same is true today. Even if we repent from our known sins, we still have to live with the consequences of those sins. Forgiveness doesn't remove consequences. I can actually attest to this. I did do some bad things in my life, not necessarily as big as David's sins. I did confess my sins, but I still live with the consequences of those actions.
Pharaoh called Joseph Zaphnath Paaneah, i.e., Salvator mundi, or Savior of the world, and gave him to wife Asenath, daughter (wife) of Potipherah, priest of On (Sun). This Asenath was the As-neith of the Egyptians, the Grecian Athene, the Roman Minerva, the Virgo of the Zodiac, and the Virgin Mary of the God's-spell, or Gospel. She was always a mother though ever a Virgin. She was the Bath-sheba, wife of Uriah, the present Joseph, whom David afterward slew that he might enjoy the beautiful wife. There is a great deal of Egyptian myth in the Tenach.

I remember a few years ago, some youths were banned from our church after someone took a picture of them lining up at the movie theatre to see Fifty Shades of Gray. A fellow church member took a photo of them and their movie tickets, and sent the photos to our pastor who later spoke to them and their parents.

Thank you so much; it seems I adore anything concerning, David. I do have an issue, though. The actor's portrayal of David and Bashiba reminds me more of a much more discomforting story; it looks eviler than maybe intended if we consider that we don't really know if Bashiba was a part of "the plot." They both look way too evil. Silly thought, maybe, but the visuals are important for setting up the story; merely a thought. God bless you and what you provide for us daily!
I didn't see the video, but Bathsheba does not come off well in this Bible story. She was married to a good man, yet didn't have any problem from what I've read in 2 Samuel 11 in marrying the man, David, that had him killed. (She might not have known that at the time though. Uncertain.) Still, she went into adultery very quickly. Maybe she planned it or maybe not. Now when Uriah’s wife heard that her husband Uriah was dead, she mourned for her husband. When the time of mourning was over, David sent servants and had her brought to his house and she became his wife; then she bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of the Lord.
King David saw her and took her she didn't have a choice he was a king after all. And she did not leave her Husband for king David. But David had him killed. And if she planned all of this I do not think that Yahweh would have made her son a king.... She was promised that because David took her and raped her. Maybe not by force , but like I said he was a king and everybody knows kings back then took what they wanted.... And she cried and was very upset that her husband had died... And it stated that yah was mad at David for the Evil he did... See that word evil.he was the one not her... EVIL THING DAVID DID....
Bathsheba plotted to SHOW UP NAKED in front of David!!! She had NO SHAME being naked in her yard around servants, Uriah didn't like it and left her DIVORCE PAPERS! Sheba's goal was to remove all David's kids and put HER sons to throne. Solomon was taught black magic - his Book Keys of Solomon. III Solomon Palace is about to be built soon - GUESS WHO is coming here??- anti.christ!!!
That followed pretty closely with my reading. Uriah was one of David’s “Mighty Men” whose exploits pop up frequently in the Bible. I don’t think Bathsheba beguiled David, I think David misused his authority to get his way with Bathsheba. I also hadn’t considered the deaths of David’s children as sacrificial lambs. Sacrificial lambs were to be without spot or blemish and Absolem and Abijiah had plenty of baggage. These are just my impressions and certainly not worth arguing over. Overall, it this was a worthy rendition!

This was the black mark against David, but otherwise he did well according to the scripture below: Now in the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, Abijam became king over Judah. He reigned for three years in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom. He walked in all the sins of his father which he had committed before him; and his heart was not wholly devoted to the Lord his God, like the heart of his father David. But for David’s sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to raise up his son after him and to establish Jerusalem, because David did what was right in the sight of the Lord, and did not deviate from anything that He commanded him all the days of his life, except in the case of Uriah the Hittite. -excerpt 1 Kings 15

Started out by saying that best Sheba had four children the first one being Solomon. It questions the integrity of this program when the first child was a boy who died at birth. Why didn't they mention that first?
2 Samuel 11:4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house. Daniel 12:10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
It’s funny how in this story nobody points out that Bathsheba most likely knew what she was doing and that “bath” in the open wasn’t so innocent, But a strategic play on the King’s lustful desires. She knew what it was ,what she had, and what it took. It’s a shame that King David fell for it and received such a recompense (though righteous) for his actions. While being the most prominent character responsible in this infamous tryst. All while hubby was away doing his best for the Kingdom…….and her as well. Sounds alot like modern times…….doesn’t it?
David was on the roof. Now at evening time David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the king’s house, and from the roof he saw a woman bathing... -excerpt 2 Samuel 11 I really don't know about the culture back then. Maybe there was a fountain area, or whatever, where women could wash off some of the days' dirt and sweat without becoming totally naked. I have a hard time thinking she was bathing naked in the city square or anything like that. But I don't know.
@Del Scott, even were that so, why did not David turn away. He didn’t. He, King David summoned her to his palace *knowing* who she was. The scriptures are clear. *2 Samuel 11:3-4 (AKJV) And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite? 4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.*

@@centuryfiles9558 Hey I'm open to learning, so where does it say that Bathsheba was performing ritual cleansing? . The description of a stolen lamb was Uriah's perspective about Bathsheba, not the other way around.
David knew of Bathsheba long before the bathing incident, please her father was a consultant for the king, Uriah was king David's loyal soldier and Bathsheba's husband. David had lusted after her long before he saw her bathing which I find an uncanny coincidence that she's named Bath-sheba and David started his affair with her after the bathing incident. So set away the rape and murder King David was the original Night stalker. Lust filled the family curse with Amnon lusting after his half sister Tamar and Absalom seeking revenge on Amnon. I find King David's story to be more thrilling than a soap opera.if Mel Gibson would write the script for a screenplay and direct it as only he could, it would be fantastic!
brother and sisters how can a prophet commit such a big sin like adultry where prophets ar role model from god to mens if a prophets commite major sin like this and do not repentance and ask forgiveness to lord then whats the difference between devil and prophet? and then god punnish the child for the sin instead of david andbathsheeba? this contridict with book of duteronomy 24:16 where its mentioned that each person will be punnished for there own sin. and its against prophets characteristics. so if you calculate all this and summuried it the bible says that prophets commit major sins and they do not repents and god is unjust. how can someone believe in thease nonsens things
You are missing actually a couple parts in the end. With David’s story, you can apply the same issue that happen with Garden of Eden all over again. God was delighted in his creation, this time being David. King David, being bored or idle, fell into lust of his own doing. Like Eve, being or idle, fell into lust and ate the fruit by easy temptation. David plotted to conceal his evil. Like Adam and Eve, hiding afterwards do the shame or ugly Pride they had about themselves when knowing God. It stops there with Garden and begins a new conversation on judgement. Then God sends a messenger to confront David about it. The messenger tells a story and allows King David to pass judgment on the message itself. God acts accordingly to David’s judgment, thus David’s sin is being punished by his own judgment which is through God. Literally, this actually shows how “Just” God is because the degree of punishment was first offered by King David. At least to me, it says that we also play a role into how we will be judge too. Thus the Golden Rule applies: “Do unto others as you will have them do unto you.” Because your opinionated judgement will be apart of your punishment too. We are all human in the end. Nothing destroys a human more than destruction of his and her family. There are no contradictions here but it’s hard to connect at first. Once connected, nothing tears you away from the source again.
You know you live in the matrix right. Living on earth isn't real life. The spiritual world is. So God just took the babies earthly life. Which is actually a blessing.

This is a tale of man's fall using his own wits and ways, and not God's who knows everything at all times. His ways are not blind laws to control man, but standards man should follow to protect himself from himself. Satan knows how man can easily be tempted away from God leading to death and destruction. David had God's love, but Jesus lives as God intended gaining all His love and power. He is our King, Messiah, and the ONLY true example of how we should live as His followers.

Bathsheba did cried when she came to know the news of uriah death so basically we can understand she did love him or had affection for him to a certain extend, but uriah was just a fool who didn't care about his house and had a meaningless death.I wonder what would have been his expression if he knew that he got the green hat and killed by the scheme of the same person who he devoted his life for and that person came to be gods favorite king 👑.

Uriah went to war to fight for his king. Instead of being loyal to her husband , she commited Adultery. And the blame is on Uriah , for her adulterous behaviour. Just crying n grieving won't make u a better person I guess. Imagine a situation in this modern . Where the wife goes to work n comes home late , n couldn't give much time to her husband , n that's why he cheats on him . I think that's justified. Because she was a fool.
Show 1 verse that said Bathsheba was guilty.... the Bible clearly put the guilt of the so called 'adultery' on David.... ask yourselves why if anyone think she was a willing partner????? Please get your bible lessons from careful study of the Scriptures.
I think it is much more likely she was a willing partner, and not a rape victim. A potential rape victim is required by the Law to cry out for help. "...she did not cry out for help though she was in the city..." “If there is a girl who is a virgin betrothed to a man, and another man finds her in the city and sleeps with her, then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city and you shall stone them to death: the girl, because she did not cry out for help though she was in the city, and the man, because he has violated his neighbor’s wife. So you shall eliminate the evil from among you. "...the betrothed girl cried out, but there was no one to save her..." “But if the man finds the girl who is betrothed in the field, and the man seizes her and rapes her, then only the man who raped her shall die. And you are not to do anything to the girl; there is no sin in the girl worthy of death, for just as a man rises against his neighbor and murders him, so is this case. When he found her in the field, the betrothed girl cried out, but there was no one to save her. -excerpt Deuteronomy 22 A rape victim contacts her husband, not her rapist. But the woman conceived; so she sent word and informed David, and said, “I am pregnant.” -excerpt 2 Samuel 11 There is no Law that I know of, that states that a married woman has to marry her rapist, but she did. She didn't have a problem with it. (It is unclear to me if she knew David had her husband killed though.) When the time of mourning was over, David sent servants and had her brought to his house and she became his wife;... There is something about a rape victim in Deuteronomy 22 marrying her rapist, but "a virgin, who is not betrothed"...so that's another matter.
she was not willing but in those days , kings were chosen by God so no one had the guts to reject a king because they were seen as representatives of God. That is why she was not punished except for the loss of her first son. Solomon bore the entire curse. In fact further proof that she was blameless was God rewarding her by making her second son King over his elder brother.
Yep. If she had said no, she ran the risk of getting herself and her husband killed. She may not have known David was in his evil phase and did anyway!! Poor Bathsheba and Uriah they loved each so much
in an instance of rape a woman is required by law to scream for help, right? Then who would be the ultimate punisher and enforcer of the law? the king.. let's take this crime to the king! Oh wait, this crime was committed by the king. Are you starting to get it ??? That's why God himself had to heavily punish David. "But the thing that David had done displeased the Lord." 2 Sam 11.27. In 2 Sam 12 Nathan, sent by God, uses a parable where Bathsheba is described as "little ewe lamb" stolen from her owner. Read 2 Sam 11 & 12 and stop imposing your misogynistic views on the story because God loved Bathsheba and avenged her in the end. @@8784-l3b

Remember these was the foundational days of man and Kings now by 2023 how have we built upon them and show we have learned the lesson? By same sex marriages? Now who sinned
I don't understand it. David was the one who was in the wrong here. He's done all of these unbelievably immoral actions towards Uriah and especially Bathsheba yet he gets nothing but a slap on the wrist at the end of it. His family suffered the consequences of HIS actions. I don't even call Bathsheba a part of his family for obvious reasons yet out of everyone, she suffered the most. Why has God allowed such a grave injustice to occur? David going through mental turmoil is not a just punishment. He needs to suffer God's divine wrath and be thrown into the lake of fire for all of the atrocities he's committed. God shouldn't have granted him any sort of grace let alone mercy yet here he was doing so. I don't care if Bathsheba's lineage was born through David violating her. This is and never was okay. I've seen people try to utilize mental gymnastics to pardon David's behavior through God's grace and mercy yet all that speaks to me is that they're more or less so trying to excuse David's actions and prohibit him from suffering a grave yet totally deserved divine punishment from God. The only real way to fix this is for Uriah and Bathsheba to reunite with each other in heaven and have a child together with David FAR away removed from that relationship. I sincerely hope David is suffering that said punishment from God because if he isn't, it shows to me that David and other monsters like him can violate others and get away with it without suffering a severe punishment that they deserve more than anyone else. At that point, how can I believe that God will deliver and make things right for those who were HORRIBLY wronged?
It is not Bathsheba's story, it's David's, Bathsheba was faithful, Solomon was her son, his reign was a reign of peace, her husband before David was a faithful man , David made a mistake, he had power to do what he did because he was king . He had to repent. Don't look for more to the story, you'll end up wanting lust, craving it, experience it ,
you wrote: Bathsheba was faithful... Bathsheba contacted David after becoming pregnant, so she wasn't raped. A rape victim contacts her husband not the man who raped her. Bathsheba was not innocent in this matter. A woman that loves her husband strongly will only have sex with another man by rape.
@@8784-l3brape is intercourse where consent is absent or coerced by fear of harm/ blackmail/ etc. Tamar wished to marry her rapist. You can't say you know how a woman who has been violated will react.
Remember he Uriah was a Hittite, he had to follow the Noahide Laws living amongst the Jews, his father was not an Israelite, but Uriah probably followed most of the laws and any of the rituals as allowed for a Mamzer or Convert ... Bathsheba did roof bathing because it was private... roofs were flat with little parapet walls to keep people from falling off from a mis-step .. bathing in an open courtyard people may pass by and see. According to tradition she had been unclean and washing her menstrual blood and cloths off her and the king's palace being higher on Mt Zion could look down from its roof onto the surrounding roofs. So David saw 6 year old Bathsheba washing her first period off (she had early puberty, was big for her age due to pituitary gland benign tumor) and thought she was adorable as a middle aged mid-life crisis Dirty Old Man... So that is why The Most High sent the prophet to David and kept calling Bathsheba the little lamb (because she was a very young Minor...now a fallen woman from married sex to her husband Uriah and now Adultery with David..) David took advantage of a kid who was easier to manipulate into sin. Anyhow Bathsheba is celebrated in Judaism as the youngest Jewish mother in history with bearing two children at age 6. The second son being King Solomon. Amazing that when Bathsheba approached King Solomon on his throne for a favor she was only 6 years older than him. LOL Moses mother is the oldest recorded Jewish-Hebrew mother in History... As she was over 130 years old when giving birth to Moses.... Sarah was 90... The Most High was chastening but also has a sense of humor. LOL the Talmud, Zohar, Enoch, Jubilees, Jasher books, Book of Giants.
Bathsheba was the one who was married I believe , the question is did she slept with him with consent or was forced to sleep with him. Did she ever felt sorry for what she did. Did she ever felt sad that her innocent husband died because of her Adultery. It's the innocent one who was brutally punished I believe , n that Is Bathsheba's first husband.
Bathsheba was married. David had a number of wives at this point I think. I found an old post of mine. It is re-posted below for you: ************************************************** I think it is much more likely she was a willing partner, and not a rape victim. A potential rape victim is required by the Law to cry out for help. "...she did not cry out for help though she was in the city..." “If there is a girl who is a virgin betrothed to a man, and another man finds her in the city and sleeps with her, then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city and you shall stone them to death: the girl, because she did not cry out for help though she was in the city, and the man, because he has violated his neighbor’s wife. So you shall eliminate the evil from among you. "...the betrothed girl cried out, but there was no one to save her..." “But if the man finds the girl who is betrothed in the field, and the man seizes her and rapes her, then only the man who raped her shall die. And you are not to do anything to the girl; there is no sin in the girl worthy of death, for just as a man rises against his neighbor and murders him, so is this case. When he found her in the field, the betrothed girl cried out, but there was no one to save her. -excerpt Deuteronomy 22 A rape victim contacts her husband, not her rapist. But the woman conceived; so she sent word and informed David, and said, “I am pregnant.” -excerpt 2 Samuel 11 There is no Law that I know of, that states that a married woman has to marry her rapist, but she did. She didn't have a problem with it. (It is unclear to me if she knew David had her husband killed though.) When the time of mourning was over, David sent servants and had her brought to his house and she became his wife;... There is something about a rape victim in Deuteronomy 22 marrying her rapist, but "a virgin, who is not betrothed"...so that's another matter.
God likened Bathsheba to a cherished lamb stolen from her home and slaughtered by a rich man. Was that to imply she was complicit? Wouldn't a better analogy be a lamb who stupidly bites and runs away from her owner to find a new shepherd if she was guilty? Can you think of another place in the Bible where a sacrificial lamb is an analogy of a guilty or sinful party? God never directed punishment at Bathsheba, but she suffered plenty as David implanted a doomed child in her and murdered her husband after violating her body. Her suffering was David-inflicted not God-inflicted.
@@hillarynnorom883 none of the Lord's punishment was directed at Bathsheba. In fact, I don't think most of what happened to David was the Lords punishment either, just the natural fall out of sin. (For example Davids wives didnt deserve to be assaulted in public and I dont believe that was by the Lords HAND even tho he did tell David in advance this would happen) Reread what was said. The Lord never implicated Bathsheba-- a bad man (a mans bad behavior) CAN cause your child to die. In fact, David taking the census cause tens of thousands of people to die as HIS punishment-- will you say everyone of those people shared davids sin so thats why they were affected by his punishment??
Bathsheba was innocent, she isn't jezebel,remember David was at fault,he should have fled the scene but usurped his authority to commit a sin,kill an innocent man, so God actually rewarded her via Solomon becoming the heir

@@morganreigns1984 And youre saying Gods word explicitly said she was innocent?? Are you serious? Was she raped? No. If she was not raped then she made the decision to do so. And even if it was out of fear, the one person she should have feared was the God of Israel, not David. And that was her mistake.
Do we lust for ice cream when on display and marketed with skill to allure you?? But when you buy it and it becomes yours because it has great value to you? What is the sin and what is the crime?
So sad this narrator uses eisegesis instead of exegesis . Yahuah sent the prophet Nathan to show him his sin . It was David and David alone who was judged . Bathsheba was a victim and her husband Uriah was a descent man and more honourable than David . David should have known better .
Please do not represent the biblical account by calling this an adultery and with background graphics as though she was seducing David in anyway. David saw her bathing and abused his position as a king to command her to his palace/chambers and forced her... she been a woman... what she could do when forced by a king? She was a victim, so do not make her sound like an accomplice by saying it was adultery... David had a problem with lust and 'stole' this woman from her husband Uriah the Hitite who for his faithfulness and loyalty in serving David was 'rewarded' not just by the rape of his wife, been deceived by David and finally murdered. Remember, how the prophet Nathan rebuked him. Nathan used the analogy of an evil rich man who had many sheep and how this evildoer stole from a poor man who loved his one and only sheep and murdered the poor man. David not only committed rape, he murdered, and deceived whole Israel for years until Nathan came and exposed his wicked ways. His actions were pre-meditated. Read the Scriptures... do anyone think she happily visited David and had sex, had an affair as this video put it??? David should have been publicly stoned to death according to the Mosaic law. God spared his life nevertheless. 2Sa 11:2 And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon. 2Sa 11:3 And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite? 2Sa 11:4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.
Urriah was a Hittite and one of David's mighty men... David was wrong... Ahitophel was Batsheba's father- in- law.. Ahitophel betrays David as an adviser to help Absolom try overthrow his father David....
Another tragic story of the Bible, if only Bathsheba would have bath inside instead of bathing on the rooftop, where her nakedness was visible for King David to see, my question is, was it common for women to bathe outside on the rooftop. Like most Men having a wondering eyes for beauty.This deceitful act from King David and Bathsheba cause so much chaos and family division.This is only my opinion, both were equally responsible for this adultery behavior. I can only imagine the gossip that surrounded her marriage to King David. She had the right to refuse King David invitation, he did not demand her visit, he only request a late night visit, with so many red flags, my father once said this to me, Men are the Gas and Women are the brakes, she was a willing participant when she accepted king David invitation, betraying her husband Uriah, who was a honorable and loyal soldier to the throne of Israel. If only Bathsheba waited for her husband return, this tragic story, would have a different outcome, what I learned from King David and Bathsheba story, faithfulness always comes with blessings without tears 🙌❤️
Law of empires and the law of today is different 😀, refusing a king's invitation, the punishment is jail or death, a king's words is law, see only one command to Joab (his general) to put Uriah in the Frontline, his wish and command is granted immediately
@@LolaAriana7515 Bathsheba wasn't an ordinary woman, she had powerful connection, putting her in jail or death would have brought shame on his head, the desires for a woman that night should have been one of his other wives after all he had six...
@@debragreer8210 She is just a soldier's wife 😀, where is bathsheba's power to refuse the king's invitation?, it is not even mentioned what rank this uriah is, but he is just a soldier,,, ok let's say that this bathsheba is powerful in the kingdom 😀, now let's look at what happened to a queen mentioned in the book of Esther who refused the invitation of her husband the king, a queen is a very powerful in a kingdom right? what did they do to her? she was removed as a queen, because it was an insult to the king,,, now imagine if Bathsheba who was only a soldier's wife refuse the invitation,,,, and you said it's David's shame if he imprison Bathsheba,,, no, because if he doesn't do that, the people will gossip about him and they will look down on him as their king, and his desires for Bathsheba is unknown to the people, and there are many possible reasons why he would invite her, for example a simple banquet, do not blame Bathsheba for what happened because even God did not punish her, although her firstborn died, but this was a punishment for David, and see of all David's wives, she was the most blessed because Bathsheba gave birth to Solomon who became king , so all the blame is on david alone
@@LolaAriana7515 Bathsheba grandfather Ahithophel, who was a personal friend of King David, and also a Man who walked with God. King David often called on Ahithophel for advice. Once this adulterous affairs was under cover, her grandfather committed suicide, his loyalty to King David was stained after his scheme revealed the murder of a great soldier a man he greatly admired, it was scandalous to cover up his affair with a married woman, a law which was punishable by death, for a woman. King David suffered from his decisions just reading the Psalms you can feel his pain and regret, Ahithophel feuded with bitterness he no longer wanted to serve under a king who used his power and authority to cover up his lustful affair with his granddaughter. This adultery affair is deeper then what we can imagine. What about the fallen soldiers who were killed along with Uriah. There families, mother, and wives, yet Bathsheba because the Kings wife, while others became widows. King David should have seek the advice from his wife Abigail, she was full of compassion and wisdom, she knew how to deal with men with a carnal and barbaric nature, King David was a great King, with a desire for beautiful women, all Bathsheba needed to do once she refused his late night invitation, that next day called on her grandfather Ahithophel who would have dealt with this issue swiftly. Lion of Judah have a profound video about her grandfather Ahithophel.
@@LolaAriana7515 Oh I needed to mention, King David and Bathsheba both were Jewish, as for Queen Esther also was Jewish, her husband the King I believe was Persian, totally different culture, Queen Esther approach the King to save the lives of her people, the Jewish people from being killed, a totally different circumstances...
Remember, this is a man that we can all relate to, no matter how good we think we are, we are all capable of this. “A man after my own heart,” is the way God describes him. He’s a man that was chosen, a man that fell, and a man that was redeemed through the Father. More than anything this is a real account of Gods redemption and how God has a history of using human beings for His Glory. God doesn’t make mistakes and King David shows the perfect representation of what repenting and turning from sin looks like.
Yesss!!! Amen 🙏🏾
But that’s didn’t mean that the consequences of his actions didn’t impact those around him especially his children. Amnon his eldest raped his sister Tamar so Absolom murdered him…and other things happened as well. What he did cost him a lot that why we should learn what to do and not to do from these peoples stories.
Well said!
Job was nothing like him according to your own book so when you say we all can fall for this like david did your vainly trying to manipulate human minds into thinking that because you and David would betray your oath to God over a woman that all men would if tempted NO MAN ON EARTH HAS BEEN TRIED AND TEMPTED LIKE JOB WAS AND HE DID NOT FALL ON HIS FACE LIKE DAVID DID!
@@stephanieturner-rodriguez8314 I think this person is just trying to encourage anyone who has fell into this sin and to break any division that says I'm not that bad, bc we are all capable of this. And adultery is more than sex, the lust of the eyes lead David to sin, adultery is putting anything before God, so we all have did this and if we say we never have than we lie, there is a spiritual aspect to each story as well.
So unloyalty bred more unloyalty between the children of his. Lust became hereditary. David reap what he sowed. Sometimes we don’t pay for sins directly, it effects those around us.
Generation curse.
@@delscott958 absolutely, who says loyalty isn’t a part of our DNA? Children on Cain, or Seth. And depending on your religion Lilith or Eve

My initial thoughts about this is to very mindful of what you ask for and seek outside the Will of God's sovereign Will according to His statutes of Holiness.
Sometimes our children pays for our sins. David is example of this situation...
We should not allow ourselves to be taken captive by the temptations of the world. Today many young Christians are developing an interest in the occult by watching movies, reading books and playing video games that promote sorcery and witchcraft. I woke up one morning to see my dad burning all my Harry Potter books on the BBQ grill. I was very upset at first, but then he looked at me with sorrow in his eyes and asked me; "Do you love these books more than Jesus"???. I was very taken aback at his question. I did not understand why I could not love Jesus and Harry Potter. My dad then read to me the story of Elisha, and how he slaughtered his oxen after he was called to be a prophet. The moral of the story was that, you need to get rid of anything that may hinder your walk with Christ. If Elisha had not slaughtered his oxen, he may have been tempted to return to his former life and abandon his mission for God. My obsession with Harry Potter was causing me to develop an unhealthy interest in the occult and witchcraft, and this was endangering my relationship with Jesus.
Too bad Melissa because billions of us especially I adapted to things we like the most. Nothing we can do about it.
I'm so glad you chose Christ ... over Harry Potter! I too, had a similar thing happen, in that before I was saved I poured over every Stephen King book that came out. I later poured myself into reading the whole Bible instead. God bless!!!

What was God to do? Control every single action of David and Bathseba? Or maybe just kill any and everyone that committed a sin? I believe Uriah served the God of Isreal, and will be welcomed to Abrahams bosom. David, Bathseba, and those who helped this plot, on the other hand, dearly paid for their sins here on Earth. Carrying with them the ramifications of their (forgiven) sin.

It helped me in my understanding of the biblical account. To have another person recite the account is like it was recounted by many of that era telling the account through oral communication. Yes your visual portion was not available at that time so I attempted to ignore that as you spoke.
Unfortunately, I could relate my life to David's although not with taking another person's life but the temptation of a beautiful woman and how sin such as this leads to destruction of those you love.
Amazingly well done.... Keep up grace digital network
From South Africa it's clear that David won God’s favour through repentance and every sin has consequences
We nottice that David was already heading in a not so good direction before falling into sin. Also gathering together with other believers can be important, it even says in the bible we should, love you guys, God bless you all!
This is why we can truly believe in God's forgiveness if we are truly repentant.

What about justice to Bathsheba first husband?
He will have his justice in the next life. After his death everyone suffered.
Repetence shall be granted if from the heart but you still have to walk and live thru the consequences even when you are no longer alive... Scary.
David went after this woman. He was supposed to be away at war, but stood on the balcony lusting after her! He *knew* she was married to another man and he had so many other wives he could have taken his need for gratification to. Why did he not turn away? *Pride* is the answer. Women were chattel during those days. How much say did she have? This story needs to be seen in the context of time it occurred. I also don’t agree with how the woman is depicted in the thumbnail… I am grateful that *Psalms 51* came out of this situation though. It is a powerful prayer and has helped me approach a Holy God when I have sinned.🇨🇦
It is far more likely that Bathsheba went along with all
this, than that she was raped.
Yeah me neither it makes her look manipulative ... When in fact it was him

@@dagmardesouza3525 exactly
she was also manipulative. She played in the adultery. Why didn't she reject it and told him that he has a husband? Why didn't she run away? They are both at fault and consented to their adultery. @@morganreigns1984
What happened in David's family is not so much punishment for his sins of adultery and murder, but the consequences of those evil deeds. Remember that God pardoned David's sins but did not remove the consequences for those sins. The same is true today. Even if we repent from our known sins, we still have to live with the consequences of those sins. Forgiveness doesn't remove consequences. I can actually attest to this. I did do some bad things in my life, not necessarily as big as David's sins. I did confess my sins, but I still live with the consequences of those actions.
The sin of lust definitely plagues everyone of us for sure
Pharaoh called Joseph Zaphnath Paaneah, i.e., Salvator mundi, or Savior of the world, and gave him to wife Asenath, daughter (wife) of Potipherah, priest of On (Sun). This Asenath was the As-neith of the Egyptians, the Grecian Athene, the Roman Minerva, the Virgo of the Zodiac, and the Virgin Mary of the God's-spell, or Gospel. She was always a mother though ever a Virgin. She was the Bath-sheba, wife of Uriah, the present Joseph, whom David afterward slew that he might enjoy the beautiful wife. There is a great deal of Egyptian myth in the Tenach.

Thank you so much; it seems I adore anything concerning, David. I do have an issue, though. The actor's portrayal of David and Bashiba reminds me more of a much more discomforting story; it looks eviler than maybe intended if we consider that we don't really know if Bashiba was a part of "the plot." They both look way too evil. Silly thought, maybe, but the visuals are important for setting up the story; merely a thought. God bless you and what you provide for us daily!
I didn't see the video, but Bathsheba does not come off
well in this Bible story. She was married to a good man,
yet didn't have any problem from what I've read in 2 Samuel 11
in marrying the man, David, that had him killed.
(She might not have known that at the time though. Uncertain.)
Still, she went into adultery very quickly. Maybe she planned
it or maybe not.
Now when Uriah’s wife heard that her husband Uriah was dead, she mourned for her husband. When the time of mourning was over, David sent servants and had her brought to his house and she became his wife; then she bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of the Lord.
@@8784-l3b Point taken, and thank you.
King David saw her and took her she didn't have a choice he was a king after all. And she did not leave her Husband for king David. But David had him killed. And if she planned all of this I do not think that Yahweh would have made her son a king.... She was promised that because David took her and raped her. Maybe not by force , but like I said he was a king and everybody knows kings back then took what they wanted.... And she cried and was very upset that her husband had died... And it stated that yah was mad at David for the Evil he did... See that word evil.he was the one not her... EVIL THING DAVID DID....
@@sarahwaters10sw Well said! You lean to my thinking; God bless!
Bathsheba plotted to SHOW UP NAKED in front of David!!! She had NO SHAME being naked in her yard around servants, Uriah didn't like it and left her DIVORCE PAPERS! Sheba's goal was to remove all David's kids and put HER sons to throne. Solomon was taught black magic - his Book Keys of Solomon. III Solomon Palace is about to be built soon - GUESS WHO is coming here??- anti.christ!!!
That followed pretty closely with my reading. Uriah was one of David’s “Mighty Men” whose exploits pop up frequently in the Bible. I don’t think Bathsheba beguiled David, I think David misused his authority to get his way with Bathsheba. I also hadn’t considered the deaths of David’s children as sacrificial lambs. Sacrificial lambs were to be without spot or blemish and Absolem and Abijiah had plenty of baggage. These are just my impressions and certainly not worth arguing over. Overall, it this was a worthy rendition!
Only people who are misguided will call this adultery.... IT WAS RAPE

Cool fantasy story dude 😂 lotr is more believable

So then, after hearing that story, explain the saying,David was a man after God's own heart.
This was the black mark against David, but otherwise he did well
according to the scripture below:
Now in the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, Abijam became king over Judah. He reigned for three years in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom. He walked in all the sins of his father which he had committed before him; and his heart was not wholly devoted to the Lord his God, like the heart of his father David. But for David’s sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to raise up his son after him and to establish Jerusalem, because David did what was right in the sight of the Lord, and did not deviate from anything that He commanded him all the days of his life, except in the case of Uriah the Hittite.

@@8784-l3b Even Jesus mentioned David,when the Jews asked Jesus why his Disciples did what was unlawful to do on the Sabbath and Jesus replied "Have you not heard what David and his officials did when they were hungry and did eat the shew bread in the temple,also David again did in the sight of God when mourning for his Son Absalom,he opened the Ark of the Covernant which was death for any man to do but God spared him....David did many sins.But something about him was special to God......And David knew that.

It’s funny how in this story nobody points out that Bathsheba most likely knew what she was doing and that “bath” in the open wasn’t so innocent, But a strategic play on the King’s lustful desires. She knew what it was ,what she had, and what it took.
It’s a shame that King David fell for it and received such a recompense (though righteous) for his actions. While being the most prominent character responsible in this infamous tryst.
All while hubby was away doing his best for the Kingdom…….and her as well.
Sounds alot like modern times…….doesn’t it?
David was on the roof.
Now at evening time David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the king’s house, and from the roof he saw a woman bathing...
-excerpt 2 Samuel 11
I really don't know about the culture back then. Maybe there was
a fountain area, or whatever, where women could wash off some of
the days' dirt and sweat without becoming totally naked. I have a hard
time thinking she was bathing naked in the city square or anything like that.
But I don't know.
@Del Scott, even were that so, why did not David turn away. He didn’t. He, King David summoned her to his palace *knowing* who she was. The scriptures are clear. *2 Samuel 11:3-4 (AKJV) And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite? 4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.*

The earl part of the story is Solomon was the second child the first child died because of the adululterous union

Bathsheba was holy and wise woman her story of success and overcoming events she wrote passage of the book of Proverbs
Truth, God considered her pure in 2 Samuel 12
This isn’t true, her 1st child died. Solomon was her second child
Follow Christ faithfully
She just happened to be prancing about buck nekkid where the king whose palace looked down over the city, might catch a glimpse.
So true, Why did she bathe where the whole Palace could see her nakedness 🤔
As I implied before, maybe she was lusting after him. @@violetsplace524
Let me ask this; can someone see you bathing bare-beamed and buck nekkid from a nearby rooftop?@@crabbylion7971
Nope. Women were required to perform a ritual purification after menstruation. He was peeping from the roof of his palace, back in those day in Jerusalem kings lived in elevated castles. She grieved when she lost her husband. She loved him and Nathan describes her as a stolen lamb. God considered Bathsheba pure. Try again. Veer your hatred towards maybe David that murdered Uriah to get his way. God never punished Bathsheba, so you shouldn't either.
@@centuryfiles9558 Hey I'm open to learning, so where does it say that Bathsheba was performing ritual cleansing? . The description of a stolen lamb was Uriah's perspective about Bathsheba, not the other way around.
AMEN AMEN HALLELUJAH
David knew of Bathsheba long before the bathing incident, please her father was a consultant for the king, Uriah was king David's loyal soldier and Bathsheba's husband. David had lusted after her long before he saw her bathing which I find an uncanny coincidence that she's named Bath-sheba and David started his affair with her after the bathing incident. So set away the rape and murder King David was the original Night stalker. Lust filled the family curse with Amnon lusting after his half sister Tamar and Absalom seeking revenge on Amnon. I find King David's story to be more thrilling than a soap opera.if Mel Gibson would write the script for a screenplay and direct it as only he could, it would be fantastic!
Note we oen the IMAGES in this footage father
You own this video … what?
And from this came Jesus.
Bathsheba was Taking a Bath her name has the word Bath in it
Works in English, by coincidence.
brother and sisters how can a prophet commit such a big sin like adultry where prophets ar role model from god to mens if a prophets commite major sin like this and do not repentance and ask forgiveness to lord then whats the difference between devil and prophet? and then god punnish the child for the sin instead of david andbathsheeba? this contridict with book of duteronomy 24:16 where its mentioned that each person will be punnished for there own sin. and its against prophets characteristics. so if you calculate all this and summuried it the bible says that prophets commit major sins and they do not repents and god is unjust. how can someone believe in thease nonsens things
You are missing actually a couple parts in the end.
With David’s story, you can apply the same issue that happen with Garden of Eden all over again.
God was delighted in his creation, this time being David.
King David, being bored or idle, fell into lust of his own doing. Like Eve, being or idle, fell into lust and ate the fruit by easy temptation.
David plotted to conceal his evil.
Like Adam and Eve, hiding afterwards do the shame or ugly Pride they had about themselves when knowing God.
It stops there with Garden and begins a new conversation on judgement.
Then God sends a messenger to confront David about it.
The messenger tells a story and allows King David to pass judgment on the message itself.
God acts accordingly to David’s judgment, thus David’s sin is being punished by his own judgment which is through God.
Literally, this actually shows how “Just” God is because the degree of punishment was first offered by King David.
At least to me, it says that we also play a role into how we will be judge too.
Thus the Golden Rule applies: “Do unto others as you will have them do unto you.”
Because your opinionated judgement will be apart of your punishment too.
We are all human in the end.
Nothing destroys a human more than destruction of his and her family.
There are no contradictions here but it’s hard to connect at first. Once connected, nothing tears you away from the source again.
You know you live in the matrix right. Living on earth isn't real life. The spiritual world is. So God just took the babies earthly life. Which is actually a blessing.
@@jamessikes6214 so then maybe did the things that have happened here somehow not really happened? Like in eternity will I still be rape victim? Or will it just be a bad memory from a super realistic simulation
David's grandparents were Ruth and Boaz. David is proof that God forgives
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is a tale of man's fall using his own wits and ways, and not God's who knows everything at all times. His ways are not blind laws to control man, but standards man should follow to protect himself from himself. Satan knows how man can easily be tempted away from God leading to death and destruction. David had God's love, but Jesus lives as God intended gaining all His love and power. He is our King, Messiah, and the ONLY true example of how we should live as His followers.
That will teach people not to take a bath on the roof exhibitionism is trouble . And so is voyeurism .

Now once they got married there was no lust? He loved his wife and was married to her until his death
♥️🕊️
Bathsheba did cried when she came to know the news of uriah death so basically we can understand she did love him or had affection for him to a certain extend, but uriah was just a fool who didn't care about his house and had a meaningless death.I wonder what would have been his expression if he knew that he got the green hat and killed by the scheme of the same person who he devoted his life for and that person came to be gods favorite king 👑.
Not being judgemental , just feel pity and sorry for uraih as a soldier only know how to fight for what he believes in, but he just beleived the wrong king and sometimes i wonder why even GOD didn't give him justice.

-excerpt 2 Samuel 12
Uriah went to war to fight for his king.
Instead of being loyal to her husband , she commited Adultery.
And the blame is on Uriah , for her adulterous behaviour.
Just crying n grieving won't make u a better person I guess.
Imagine a situation in this modern . Where the wife goes to work n comes home late , n couldn't give much time to her husband , n that's why he cheats on him .
I think that's justified.
Because she was a fool.
Show 1 verse that said Bathsheba was guilty.... the Bible clearly put the guilt of the so called 'adultery' on David.... ask yourselves why if anyone think she was a willing partner????? Please get your bible lessons from careful study of the Scriptures.
I think it is much more likely she was a willing partner,
and not a rape victim.
A potential rape victim is required by the Law to cry out for help.
"...she did not cry out for help though she was in the city..."
“If there is a girl who is a virgin betrothed to a man, and another man finds her in the city and sleeps with her, then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city and you shall stone them to death: the girl, because she did not cry out for help though she was in the city, and the man, because he has violated his neighbor’s wife. So you shall eliminate the evil from among you.
"...the betrothed girl cried out, but there was no one to save her..."
“But if the man finds the girl who is betrothed in the field, and the man seizes her and rapes her, then only the man who raped her shall die. And you are not to do anything to the girl; there is no sin in the girl worthy of death, for just as a man rises against his neighbor and murders him, so is this case. When he found her in the field, the betrothed girl cried out, but there was no one to save her.

she was not willing but in those days , kings were chosen by God so no one had the guts to reject a king because they were seen as representatives of God. That is why she was not punished except for the loss of her first son. Solomon bore the entire curse. In fact further proof that she was blameless was God rewarding her by making her second son King over his elder brother.
Yep. If she had said no, she ran the risk of getting herself and her husband killed. She may not have known David was in his evil phase and did anyway!! Poor Bathsheba and Uriah they loved each so much
in an instance of rape a woman is required by law to scream for help, right? Then who would be the ultimate punisher and enforcer of the law? the king.. let's take this crime to the king! Oh wait, this crime was committed by the king. Are you starting to get it ??? That's why God himself had to heavily punish David. "But the thing that David had done displeased the Lord." 2 Sam 11.27. In 2 Sam 12 Nathan, sent by God, uses a parable where Bathsheba is described as "little ewe lamb" stolen from her owner. Read 2 Sam 11 & 12 and stop imposing your misogynistic views on the story because God loved Bathsheba and avenged her in the end. @@8784-l3b
WHAT?!?!?? HOW IS THAT FAIR????
If only he met Joseph and job, King David would never lust not commit adultery ❤️ job 31:1 job made a covenant with god that he'd never look at a young woman lustfully same as Joseph with pontifas wife He ran away 😉😉😉 the different wisdom level on this is amazing....I wish all men God's grace if you're struggling with lust
Remember these was the foundational days of man and Kings now by 2023 how have we built upon them and show we have learned the lesson? By same sex marriages? Now who sinned
I don't understand it. David was the one who was in the wrong here. He's done all of these unbelievably immoral actions towards Uriah and especially Bathsheba yet he gets nothing but a slap on the wrist at the end of it. His family suffered the consequences of HIS actions. I don't even call Bathsheba a part of his family for obvious reasons yet out of everyone, she suffered the most. Why has God allowed such a grave injustice to occur? David going through mental turmoil is not a just punishment. He needs to suffer God's divine wrath and be thrown into the lake of fire for all of the atrocities he's committed. God shouldn't have granted him any sort of grace let alone mercy yet here he was doing so. I don't care if Bathsheba's lineage was born through David violating her. This is and never was okay. I've seen people try to utilize mental gymnastics to pardon David's behavior through God's grace and mercy yet all that speaks to me is that they're more or less so trying to excuse David's actions and prohibit him from suffering a grave yet totally deserved divine punishment from God. The only real way to fix this is for Uriah and Bathsheba to reunite with each other in heaven and have a child together with David FAR away removed from that relationship. I sincerely hope David is suffering that said punishment from God because if he isn't, it shows to me that David and other monsters like him can violate others and get away with it without suffering a severe punishment that they deserve more than anyone else. At that point, how can I believe that God will deliver and make things right for those who were HORRIBLY wronged?
She knew David balcony was right next door
It is not Bathsheba's story, it's David's, Bathsheba was faithful, Solomon was her son, his reign was a reign of peace, her husband before David was a faithful man , David made a mistake, he had power to do what he did because he was king . He had to repent. Don't look for more to the story, you'll end up wanting lust, craving it, experience it ,
you wrote:
Bathsheba was faithful...
Bathsheba contacted David
after becoming pregnant, so she wasn't raped. A rape victim
contacts her husband not the man who raped her.
Bathsheba was not innocent in this matter. A woman that
loves her husband strongly will only have sex with another
man by rape.
@@8784-l3brape is intercourse where consent is absent or coerced by fear of harm/ blackmail/ etc. Tamar wished to marry her rapist. You can't say you know how a woman who has been violated will react.
Remember he Uriah was a Hittite, he had to follow the Noahide Laws living amongst the Jews, his father was not an Israelite, but Uriah probably followed most of the laws and any of the rituals as allowed for a Mamzer or Convert ... Bathsheba did roof bathing because it was private... roofs were flat with little parapet walls to keep people from falling off from a mis-step .. bathing in an open courtyard people may pass by and see.
According to tradition she had been unclean and washing her menstrual blood and cloths off her and the king's palace being higher on Mt Zion could look down from its roof onto the surrounding roofs.
So David saw 6 year old Bathsheba washing her first period off (she had early puberty, was big for her age due to pituitary gland benign tumor) and thought she was adorable as a middle aged mid-life crisis Dirty Old Man...
So that is why The Most High sent the prophet to David and kept calling Bathsheba the little lamb (because she was a very young Minor...now a fallen woman from married sex to her husband Uriah and now Adultery with David..) David took advantage of a kid who was easier to manipulate into sin.
Anyhow Bathsheba is celebrated in Judaism as the youngest Jewish mother in history with bearing two children at age 6. The second son being King Solomon. Amazing that when Bathsheba approached King Solomon on his throne for a favor she was only 6 years older than him.
LOL
Moses mother is the oldest recorded Jewish-Hebrew mother in History... As she was over 130 years old when giving birth to Moses.... Sarah was 90...
The Most High was chastening but also has a sense of humor.
LOL the Talmud, Zohar, Enoch, Jubilees, Jasher books, Book of Giants.
Bathsheba was the one who was married I believe , the question is did she slept with him with consent or was forced to sleep with him.
Did she ever felt sorry for what she did.
Did she ever felt sad that her innocent husband died because of her Adultery.
It's the innocent one who was brutally punished I believe , n that Is Bathsheba's first husband.
Bathsheba was married. David had a number of wives at
this point I think.

was either to sin or not.
David was so out of order in what he did
Both David and Bathsheba were punished, that means it's the two of them
Poor Bathsheba..there is a David sleeping inside every man's heart.. don't blame helpless Bathsheba for a man's male chauvinism
God likened Bathsheba to a cherished lamb stolen from her home and slaughtered by a rich man. Was that to imply she was complicit? Wouldn't a better analogy be a lamb who stupidly bites and runs away from her owner to find a new shepherd if she was guilty? Can you think of another place in the Bible where a sacrificial lamb is an analogy of a guilty or sinful party? God never directed punishment at Bathsheba, but she suffered plenty as David implanted a doomed child in her and murdered her husband after violating her body. Her suffering was David-inflicted not God-inflicted.
@@taylorjeffery4363 Don't forget the punishment was dished out to both parties. What does that tell you?
@@hillarynnorom883 none of the Lord's punishment was directed at Bathsheba. In fact, I don't think most of what happened to David was the Lords punishment either, just the natural fall out of sin. (For example Davids wives didnt deserve to be assaulted in public and I dont believe that was by the Lords HAND even tho he did tell David in advance this would happen) Reread what was said. The Lord never implicated Bathsheba-- a bad man (a mans bad behavior) CAN cause your child to die. In fact, David taking the census cause tens of thousands of people to die as HIS punishment-- will you say everyone of those people shared davids sin so thats why they were affected by his punishment??
Bathsheba was innocent, she isn't jezebel,remember David was at fault,he should have fled the scene but usurped his authority to commit a sin,kill an innocent man, so God actually rewarded her via Solomon becoming the heir
If she was truly loyal she would have committed suicide to protect herself. Who want to give up a chance to enjoy royal life?

In Jesus mighty name
Nobody knows if Bathsheba was complicit or not. I have my opinion though.
It is very likely she was a victim of coercion
So sad this narrator uses eisegesis instead of exegesis . Yahuah sent the prophet Nathan to show him his sin . It was David and David alone who was judged . Bathsheba was a victim and her husband Uriah was a descent man and more honourable than David . David should have known better .
No. Part of This Story Is Incorrect...King David and Bathsheha's first Baby DIED!
2 Samuel 12.
TRUE it was David's first punishment
Please do not represent the biblical account by calling this an adultery and with background graphics as though she was seducing David in anyway. David saw her bathing and abused his position as a king to command her to his palace/chambers and forced her... she been a woman... what she could do when forced by a king? She was a victim, so do not make her sound like an accomplice by saying it was adultery... David had a problem with lust and 'stole' this woman from her husband Uriah the Hitite who for his faithfulness and loyalty in serving David was 'rewarded' not just by the rape of his wife, been deceived by David and finally murdered. Remember, how the prophet Nathan rebuked him. Nathan used the analogy of an evil rich man who had many sheep and how this evildoer stole from a poor man who loved his one and only sheep and murdered the poor man. David not only committed rape, he murdered, and deceived whole Israel for years until Nathan came and exposed his wicked ways. His actions were pre-meditated. Read the Scriptures... do anyone think she happily visited David and had sex, had an affair as this video put it??? David should have been publicly stoned to death according to the Mosaic law. God spared his life nevertheless.
2Sa 11:2 And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
2Sa 11:3 And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?
2Sa 11:4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.
finally someone with the truth. poor Bathsheba and uriah
Urriah was a Hittite and one of David's mighty men... David was wrong... Ahitophel was Batsheba's father- in- law.. Ahitophel betrays David as an adviser to help Absolom try overthrow his father David....
Mother of Salomon?
Once a cheater always a cheater
Another tragic story of the Bible, if only Bathsheba would have bath inside instead of bathing on the rooftop, where her nakedness was visible for King David to see, my question is, was it common for women to bathe outside on the rooftop. Like most Men having a wondering eyes for beauty.This deceitful act from King David and Bathsheba cause so much chaos and family division.This is only my opinion, both were equally responsible for this adultery behavior. I can only imagine the gossip that surrounded her marriage to King David. She had the right to refuse King David invitation, he did not demand her visit, he only request a late night visit, with so many red flags, my father once said this to me, Men are the Gas and Women are the brakes, she was a willing participant when she accepted king David invitation, betraying her husband Uriah, who was a honorable and loyal soldier to the throne of Israel. If only Bathsheba waited for her husband return, this tragic story, would have a different outcome, what I learned from King David and Bathsheba story, faithfulness always comes with blessings without tears 🙌❤️
Law of empires and the law of today is different 😀, refusing a king's invitation, the punishment is jail or death, a king's words is law, see only one command to Joab (his general) to put Uriah in the Frontline, his wish and command is granted immediately
@@LolaAriana7515 Bathsheba wasn't an ordinary woman, she had powerful connection, putting her in jail or death would have brought shame on his head, the desires for a woman that night should have been one of his other wives after all he had six...
@@debragreer8210 She is just a soldier's wife 😀, where is bathsheba's power to refuse the king's invitation?, it is not even mentioned what rank this uriah is, but he is just a soldier,,, ok let's say that this bathsheba is powerful in the kingdom 😀, now let's look at what happened to a queen mentioned in the book of Esther who refused the invitation of her husband the king, a queen is a very powerful in a kingdom right? what did they do to her? she was removed as a queen, because it was an insult to the king,,, now imagine if Bathsheba who was only a soldier's wife refuse the invitation,,,, and you said it's David's shame if he imprison Bathsheba,,, no, because if he doesn't do that, the people will gossip about him and they will look down on him as their king, and his desires for Bathsheba is unknown to the people, and there are many possible reasons why he would invite her, for example a simple banquet, do not blame Bathsheba for what happened because even God did not punish her, although her firstborn died, but this was a punishment for David, and see of all David's wives, she was the most blessed because Bathsheba gave birth to Solomon who became king , so all the blame is on david alone
@@LolaAriana7515 Bathsheba grandfather Ahithophel, who was a personal friend of King David, and also a Man who walked with God. King David often called on Ahithophel for advice. Once this adulterous affairs was under cover, her grandfather committed suicide, his loyalty to King David was stained after his scheme revealed the murder of a great soldier a man he greatly admired, it was scandalous to cover up his affair with a married woman, a law which was punishable by death, for a woman. King David suffered from his decisions just reading the Psalms you can feel his pain and regret, Ahithophel feuded with bitterness he no longer wanted to serve under a king who used his power and authority to cover up his lustful affair with his granddaughter. This adultery affair is deeper then what we can imagine. What about the fallen soldiers who were killed along with Uriah. There families, mother, and wives, yet Bathsheba because the Kings wife, while others became widows. King David should have seek the advice from his wife Abigail, she was full of compassion and wisdom, she knew how to deal with men with a carnal and barbaric nature, King David was a great King, with a desire for beautiful women, all Bathsheba needed to do once she refused his late night invitation, that next day called on her grandfather Ahithophel who would have dealt with this issue swiftly. Lion of Judah have a profound video about her grandfather Ahithophel.
@@LolaAriana7515 Oh I needed to mention, King David and Bathsheba both were Jewish, as for Queen Esther also was Jewish, her husband the King I believe was Persian, totally different culture, Queen Esther approach the King to save the lives of her people, the Jewish people from being killed, a totally different circumstances...
