Context
16:20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel , “Give us your advice . What should we do ?”
16:21 Ahithophel replied to Absalom , “Have sex with your father’s concubines whom he left to care for the palace . All Israel will hear that you have made yourself repulsive to your father . Then your followers will be motivated to support you.”
16:22 So they pitched a tent for Absalom on the roof , and Absalom had sex with his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel .
16:23 In those days Ahithophel’s advice was considered as valuable as a prophetic revelation . Both David and Absalom highly regarded the advice of Ahithophel .
