It's probably some of both. I like stories like this in that they bring up aspects we probably never thought of (like the extent of her loss and how the other wives would have received her), but I am wary when the author's imagination puts possibilities in that the Biblical text neither includes nor implies, like Nathan's having feelings for Bathsheba.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-24423077756293818742016-02-01T18:01:15.332-07:002016-02-01T18:01:15.332-07:00OH!

I actually heard our pastor preach a sermon about this part of David's story (or maybe it was also a beth moore study since I took a class on her book about David). anyways...i learned that bathsheeba was NOT a willing participant. That David thought he could have whatever and whomever he wanted. I'm going to look for this series at my town library. It sounds really good!!Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06608258814596465122noreply@blogger.com
