David Receiving the News of Uriah’s Death by Rembrandt
David Receiving the News of Uriah’s Deathby Rembrandt van Rijn.
David devised a plan that would cost Bat-Sheva’s husband, Uriah, his life.
2 Samuel 11:14-17 In the morning, David wrote a letter to Joab, which he sent with Uriah. He wrote in the letter as follows: "Place Uriah in the front line where the fighting is fiercest; then fall back so that he may be killed."…The men of the city sallied out and attacked Joab… Uriah the Hittite was among those who died.
King David deeply regretted his mistake, and an ode to this regret can be read in Psalm 51. The child of their union died. King David took Bat-Sheva as his wife, and she gave birth to Solomon, the future king who would be commissioned to build the Temple.
