The Rebellion of Sheba
Commentary
In 2 Samuel 20, we see the story of Sheba, a Benjamite, who rebels against King David and leads a revolt against him. Sheba's rebellion is quickly put down by Joab, David's commander, and the people of Israel. This chapter serves as a reminder of the power of the monarchy and the loyalty of the people of Israel to their king. The chapter begins with Sheba's revolt, which is quickly put down by Joab and the people of Israel. Sheba is killed and the people of Israel are restored to their loyalty to David. This is a reminder of the power of the monarchy and the loyalty of the people of Israel to their king. The chapter then moves on to the story of Amasa, Joab's cousin, who is appointed commander of the army in place of Joab. Amasa is killed by Joab, who is then appointed commander of the army once again. This serves as a reminder of the power of the monarchy and the loyalty of the people of Israel to their king. The chapter ends with the story of a man named Ithra, who is sent by David to negotiate with the people of Jabesh-Gilead. Ithra is successful in his mission and the people of Jabesh-Gilead are restored to their loyalty to David. This is a reminder of the power of the monarchy and the loyalty of the people of Israel to their king. Overall, 2 Samuel 20 serves as a reminder of the power of the monarchy and the loyalty of the people of Israel to their king. It is a reminder that even in times of rebellion, the people of Israel remain loyal to their king.
