2 SAMUEL 12:24 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 2
“And David comforted Bath–sheba his wife, and went in unto her, and lay with her: and she bare a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the Lord loved him.”
'But now he is dead; why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he will not return to me' - David's theology of death is mature: the dead do not return; the living go to the dead. His acceptance reflects covenant faith: the child is in the Lord's hands.
