The account of David's great sins first with Bathsheba and then in the murder of her husband, Uriah, one of David's most loyal defenders, is clear evidence of the truth of divine inspiration of the Scriptures. Human biographers would either minimize or sensationalize this story depending on their personal biases, but God's Spirit gives us the plain facts without descending into the lurid details that seem to fascinate the people of the world. This chapter is a solemn warning that none of the Lord's people is beyond the devil's reach when it comes to temptation, and that it behooves the Lord's people to be where they should be and with whom they should be. David compounded the sin of adultery by seeking to undermine the solid and noble character of Uriah, and failing in that attempt, in conspiring with Joab to have Uriah killed in battle. The final sentence in the chapter emphasizes the calamity of a believer's sin, and the ultimate crime of displeasing the Lord.
