2 Samuel 20 - 22
2 SamuelSteve Gregg
In 2 Samuel 20-22, the northern tribes of Israel return to their tents out of concern for David's defilement, but Joab successfully leads them back. However, Joab's fear of Amasa results in his death, and Joab is reinstated as the commanding general. David brings Abiathar the priest back into his council, and they go on to discuss the giants of the Philistines and the miraculous ways in which God has delivered them. David acknowledges his own sin with Bathsheba but emphasizes the importance of following God's statutes. Lastly, the speaker sheds light on the significance of crediting God for His miraculous interventions in one's life.
