A dark chapter, Sin and shame for David. Always remember that the types of Christ in the Bible are not perfect human beings. God didn’t write the Bible to exalt man, but to exalt Christ.
V.2-4 Notice that David had several opportunities to stop his sinful course, but didn’t. It is often that way for believers. The time to refuse Satan’s temptation is at the very beginning. Instead of David being active, he is taking his ease. The old saying is true “Satan finds many things for idle hands to do.” Sin follows.
V.6-25 Then the worst efforts to cover up the sin. Uriah was a true and faithful servant to David, though he was not a Hebrew. David brings brave Uriah to his grave! What a shameful thing to do!
