Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 2 Samuel 12:24

THE BIRTH OF SOLOMON"Then David comforted his wife Bathsheba, and went in to her, and lay with her; and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. And the Lord loved him, and sent a message by Nathan the prophet; so he called his name Jedidiah, because of the Lord.""He called his name Solomon" (2 Samuel 12:24). "Solomon means peaceable, the name given to him upon the occasion of his circumcision. The name Jedidiah was given by the Lord; it comes from the same root as the name David and... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - 2 Samuel 12:24

2 Samuel 12:24. And she bare a son, and he called his name Solomon— As David was now in peace with God, and foresaw, in the spirit of prophesy, that his son would be a pacific prince, he called his name Solomon, or peaceable; and as this son was conceived in innocence, in the happy season of God's reconcilement to his parents, and to their establishment in true religion, by sincere repentance and humiliation before him, it pleased God to accept him in a singular manner, which is signified to us... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - 2 Samuel 12:24

24, 25. Bath-sheba . . . bare a son, and he called his name Solomon—that is, "peaceable." But Nathan gave him the name of Jedediah, by command of God, or perhaps only as an expression of God's love. This love and the noble gifts with which he was endowed, considering the criminality of the marriage from which he sprang, is a remarkable instance of divine goodness and grace. :-.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 2 Samuel 12:15-25

The death of one child and the birth of another 12:15b-25Why did God take the life of this child since its parents sinned?"That the child should be punished for what David did seems wrong. We need to remind ourselves, however, that even today innocent children suffer from the things their parents do. The more pointed question deals with whether God should be credited with the cause of the suffering. I once sat at the funeral of a child who had been accidentally killed by a drunk man riding... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Samuel 12:1-31

David’s Repentance and Pardon. The Capture of Rabbah4. To dress for the wayfaring man] We may notice Eastern ideas of hospitality: cp. Genesis 18:3-5. 5. Shall surely die] David’s impulsive temper breaks out again: cp. 1 Samuel 25:22.11. For the fulfilment of this threat, see 2 Samuel 16:21, 2 Samuel 16:22. David’s repentance secured the forgiveness of God, but it did not avert the punishment of his sin. 13. Thou shalt not die] This was the punishment David himself had pronounced on the... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 2 Samuel 12:24

(24) Called his name Solomon.—The birth of Solomon could hardly have taken place until after the events mentioned in 2 Samuel 12:26-31, since it is not likely that the siege of Rabbah would have occupied two years. It is without doubt mentioned here (after the custom of Scripture narrative) to close the story of Bath-sheba in its proper connection. The birth of that son who should succeed to the kingdom, and through whom should pass the line to the Messiah, was too important to be overlooked. read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - 2 Samuel 12:1-31

Nathan and David 2 Samuel 12:7 Holy Scripture leaves us in no manner of doubt as to the general character of David (1 Samuel 13:14 ). So that we cannot doubt of David's favour and acceptance with God before he sinned so grievously. Moreover, his own writings have come down to us as witness of his affection towards God; his Psalms say plainly what his mind must have been, for we still use them, as they have ever been used in the Church of God both by Jews and Christians, as the best expression... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - 2 Samuel 12:13-25

CHAPTER XVI.PENITENCE AND CHASTISEMENT.2 Samuel 12:13-25.WHEN Nathan ended his message, plainly and strongly though he had spoken, David indicated no irritation, made no complaint against the prophet, but simply and humbly confessed - "I have sinned." It is so common for men to be offended when a servant of God remonstrates with them, and to impute their interference to an unworthy motive, and to the desire of someone to hurt and humiliate them, that it is refreshing to find a great king... read more
