Torrey, [ca. 1880]\nOverview\nSa2 11:1, While Joab besieges Rabbah, David commits adultery with Bath-sheba; Sa2 11:6, Uriah, sent for by David to cover the adultery, would not go home; Sa2 11:14, He carries to Joab the letter of his death; Sa2 11:18, Joab sends the news thereof to David; Sa2 11:26, David takes Bath-sheba to wife.\nam 2969, bc 1035, An, Ex, Is, 456\nafter the year: etc. Heb. at the return of the year. Kg1 20:22, Kg1 20:26; Ch2 36:10; Ecc 3:8\nat the time: The sacred historian seems to intimate that there was one particular time of the year to which military operations were limited; and Josephus informs us that this took place in the beginning of spring. In another part of his works he says, that as soon as spring was begun, Adad levied and led forth his army against the Hebrews. Antiochus also prepared to invade Judea at the first appearance of spring; and Vespasian marched to Antipatris at the commencement of the same season. The kings and armies of the East, says Chardin, do not march but when there is grass, and when they can encamp, which is in April. This rule, however, seems to be disregarded in modern times.\nDavid sent: Ch1 20:1; Zac 14:3\nRabbah: Sa2 12:26; Deu 3:11; Ch1 20:1; Eze 21:20\narose from: Sa2 4:5, Sa2 4:7; Pro 19:15, Pro 24:33, Pro 24:34; Mat 26:40, Mat 26:41; Th1 5:6, Th1 5:7; Pe1 4:7\nthe roof of: Deu 22:8; Jer 19:13; Mat 10:27; Act 10:9\nhe saw: Gen 3:6, Gen 6:2, Gen 34:2; Job 31:1; Psa 119:37; Mat 5:28; Jo1 2:16\nvery beautiful: Gen 39:6; Pro 6:25, Pro 31:30\nsent: Jer 5:8; Hos 7:6, Hos 7:7; Jam 1:14, Jam 1:15\nBathsheba: or, Bath-shua\nEliam: or, Ammiel, Ch1 3:5\nsent messengers: Gen 39:7; Job 31:9-11; Psa 50:18\nhe lay: Psa 51:1 *title Jam 1:14, Jam 1:15\nshe was: etc. or, and when she had purified herself, etc. she returned.

This was the greatest treachery and villany on the part of David; while Joab appears to enter as fully upon the execution of the murder, being perhaps pleased to have this opportunity of further enthralling his king, and thus increasing his own power.
