2 SAMUEL 11:12 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And David said to Uriah, Tarry here to day also, and to morrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.”
Uriah said to David, 'The ark, and Israel, and Judah, are staying in tents; and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are camping in the open field; shall I then go to my house, to eat and drink, and to lie with my wife?' - Uriah's answer invokes covenant principle: while the covenant people and the ark camp in tents, Uriah refuses comfort. His faithfulness to the community supersedes personal indulgence.
