2 Samuel 11 - Introduction

While Joab besieges Rabbah, David commits adultery with Bath-sheba, the wife of Uriah. He sends for Uriah from the army, whom afterwards he sends back to Joab, with orders to set him in the fore-front of the battle. Uriah is slain, and David marries Bath-sheba, who brings him a son.
