1 Kings 1:13-17
Surely <03588> [Assuredly.]
sit <03427> [sit.]
arrive <0935> [I also.]
verify <04390> [confirm. Heb. fill up.]
very old <02204 03966> [very old.]
bowed down on <06915> [bowed.]
king ... king <04428> [And the.]
[What wouldest thou? Heb. What to thee?]
master <0113> [My lord.]
swore <07650> [thou swarest.]
It is not recorded when or upon what occasion David sware to Bathsheba that Solomon should succeed him; but it is supposed, with some degree of probability, that it took place after Absalom's rebellion; and as God himself had settled the succession, he might very properly give her this assurance.
