In that world, taking the king’s concubines was a public way of saying: “David is no longer king. His house, throne, and authority now belong to Absalom.” It was meant to make the break permanent. No going back. No “father and son can reconcile later.” Absalom had publicly dishonored David. The women were treated as political property, which is ugly. The Bible records it, but it doesn’t celebrate it.

this reverse psychology is sweet. Also, the people in our inner circle who we listen to...we ought to be extremely cautious and be judges of intent. most importantly God will keep his people

That son na really bastard, and yooo rebellion is such a crazy thing, offense mixed with it is an evil thing and it’s not from God The fact that someone is cursing doesn’t mean they are from God o, you see even David assumed in the Bible. David’s son Dey muzz me 😂, you want to go after David’s men? Ehi see finish really start from home o, even David said let’s just go because we want it to be at peace for the people of Jerusalem and us. Saul’s Grandson is so funny 😂, really? You want to take your father throne? Ehi chale you don’t even have legs

Don't let us think David didn't understand what was going on. He was told this will happen, reason he left hoping to avoid it. He understood Prophecy himself, a Prophet. Do you all understand now why God demands the annihilation of all the Canaanites? It was an issue of DNA, even babies you spare will grow up to want revenge and do evil. Obed Parry you see it my dear friend?
