Analysis of 2 Samuel 13 — Cakes in the Dark, a Door Bolted, and a Feast Turned to Blood: When the Sword Enters the House

Some chapters sound like thunder outside the city.


This one is thunder inside the family.


A son becomes sick with wanting.


A sister becomes a meal prepared for a lie.


A door shuts with a bolt.


A princess walks out wearing ashes.


Two years pass like quiet poison.


Sheep are sheared.


Wine is poured.


And the king’s house learns what Nathan meant:


“the sword shall not depart from your house.” (2 Samuel 12:10)


Analysis of 2 Samuel 13 — Cakes in the Dark, a Door Bolted, and a Feast Turned to Blood. Tense scene of men in ancient attire at a table. One holds a knife, others look emotional. Plates of food and goblets visible. Dusty setting.
“the sword shall not depart from your house.” (2 Sam 12:10)
