  • Who was Absalom? Absalom was one of the sons of David, a powerful and influential king of Israel in the Old Testament. Absalom was famous for his unusual and admirable beauty, as well as for his empathy and charm.
    However, Absalom’s story was marked by two significant events: the vengeful murder of his half-brother Amnon and his subsequent conspiracy and rebellion against his own father, King David.
    The name Absalom has Hebrew origin and means “my father is peace” or “peace of God”. However, peace was not evident in his biography.
    He was the third son of King David with Maacah, daughter of Talmai, king of Geshur. There is no precise information about the year of Absalom’s birth, but scholars believe he was born a thousand years before Christ.

      @Christusregna Maybe so, but he rode
      for his sister in an era where women, both honorable and dishonorable were treated like utter trash. May not be right but I know who I was rooting for in that story since I was old enough to understand it.

      @@shyy87 Women of the Bible were not treated like trash. There are many examples of faithful women in the Bible who were blessed by God... like Rahab, Sarah, Rebekah, Ruth, Naomi, Priscilla, Esther and more. Don't look at the few bad examples, because there are some men in the Bible who have suffered as well.

      @@shyy87 Not sure how you were taught that the women of the bible were treated like trash. Absalom didn't allow his father or God to deal with Tamar's situation. He took it upon himself and most likely had designs on the throne before that using his sister as an excuse. What happened with david's children is a result of the curse that befell him from his murder of bathsheba's first husband and the cover up against God. David's house was in shambles and his children were victim's of that failure. God's blessing was becoming a curse. And since you DON'T understand any of this, i admonish you to READ the word through prayer rather than trying to read it through modern rules of engagement - try what GOD would have you to understand instead!

    I have always cried whenever I read or hear the story of absalom and David. His fatherhood (David) shows how it reflected God's fatherhood be like because as a king he worshiped Him.
    Also it makes me cry because the story is also an example of God saving David again and again from his enemies when he calls upon Him despite his imperfections.. ❤

    Absalom and Ammon both were very damaged young men. Ammon grew into someone with a pathological hatred of women who was just a hair’s breadth away from beginning to murder them for kicks. Absalom was a pressure cooker of rage just waiting to blow. He loved his sister and family. But this is someone who would never have been capable of normal relationships. Anyone getting close to him would have essentially even playing Russian roulette. He wasn’t safe to be around. Too much damage had been done.
    King David is an example of how God often uses deeply dysfunctional families and individuals. He was flawed he made some terrible terrible mistakes. Which inflicted long lasting irreversible damage.

      I believe this happened because of adultery with Bathsheba . It was already foretold by God tat some kind of punishment would strike David .

    King Davids punishment for sinning against God with Bathsheba by having Uriah the Hittite killed so he can have Bathsheba is not whats mentioned here … Davids punishment was that he lost his first child with Bathsheba. King David had Uriah killed when Bathsheba became pregnant with their love child . He tried to get Uriah to go home and and sleep with Bathsheba the night Uriah returned from duties … but Uriah paid homage to King David that night instead and did not spend the night with Bathsheba . Next morning he returned to duties and with a letter King David to Commander in charge to put Uriah in front line to be killed instantly . Uriah delivered his death his death sentence himself , without knowing what was ordered . Uriah was a devoted man to King David . He was Davids best friend . He knew before hand that Bathsheba was pregnant thats why he was telling Uriah to go home to Bathsheba that night so he could sleep with her snd cover up his sin with his wife but instead Uriah was devoted in his serving King David and slept outside King Davids premises that night . Thats why he had Uriah killed front line. Imagine if Uriah read the letter … what would have happened then . But Uriah was too trusting and did not suspect anything evil was happening . I felt sorry for Uriah the Hittite . He was devoted friend to King David . But Bathsheba Lost the child she carried . That was Gods Punishment . This story of Absolom also reminded me of Dinah . The Only daughter of Jacob and Leah . And Dinah was the Only sister of Simeon , Judah and to three other brothers and she was also raped . And her brothers took revenge and they killed entire tribe .

      You’re entitled to your rant. I can get on my rant with the best of them too. But try to spell above a 3rd grade level and try to be sober. Maybe I’m being anal retentive. But if you want for your words to be taken seriously take the time to string simple sentences together correctly and try not to be obnoxious. Atrocious spelling and acting like an arse is a combination that will make people’s hackles rise
