Verse 6
And David sent to Joab ,.... Who was with the army besieging Rabbah, which, according to Bunting F11 Travels, &c.; p. 146. , was sixty four miles from Jerusalem:
saying , send me Uriah the Hittite ; the scheme David had contrived in his mind was to get Uriah home to his wife for a few days, that it might be thought the child she had conceived was his, whereby the sin of David, and her own, might be concealed:
and Joab sent Uriah to David ; not knowing his business, and besides it was his duty to obey his command.
Be the first to react on this!
