I wish You peace my man, we are both saying the correct thing just having two different world views. Ur view is that evil is evil and my view is that some evil is necessary to avoid a greater Evil.

■ see ba, in the old Israel culture Kingship was also a popularity thing, reason why Saul hated David and why Absalom almost took David's throne while he was alive. David was a well respected King but He never announced His successor in public, He told only His Priest and His Wife Beersheba.
■ If Adonijah had gotten David's Concubine as a Wife, He would use it as a tool to increase His popularity amongst the Israelites and also to make claim that He was the rightful heir given that He was the oldest son of king David. It is also to be Mentioned that Solomon had a love Hate relationship with many parts of Israel which is why immediately He died they broke off from His Son Rehoboam and left the Bloodline of David to rule Judah..

Kobojunkie:
Kingship was popularity and not of God during the time or David who Himself was chosen by God?

2. Adonijah, by violating God's very Law which decrees no man should yearn for his father's wife would gain popularity with the people in his cursed state enough to become King of Israel?

chukkystar:
■ She wasn't David's Wife, she was His concubine. Him making Her His Wife would help hide Her shame and still keep Her in the House of King David.
■ Also the Lord chose King Solomon but don't forget that there were also present many other supposed Messengers of God who would have also told people Adonijah was Chosen by the Lord

There was a man named adonija, Solomon older brother he went to meet king Solomon mother Bethsheba to make a request that if possible king Solomon should give him the virgin girl given to their father king David when king Solomon was told his brother request he got angry and put him to death...
So here is my question bcoz am somehow confused is king Solomon action right or wrong

Kobojunkie:
This is a silly assumption and conclusion.

SoftP:
Though Adonija’s intentions wasn’t pure,
but that was a humble request which could have been refused,
more also, he politely approached Solomon’s mother first!
but a King does not takes calmly whatever poses a threat to his leadership!

Besides; Solomon does not also joke With anything that concerns his libido,
just like his Father who killed the husband of his mother(Uriah) just to possess her.

It’s hereditary

tctrills:

In does times it could be acceptable but today, you don't kill people for asking for a wife.You don't kill your brother for that.

Maynman:

Exactly, And you defending murder is normal to you, you are using kim jong un as example of someone killing siblings because of power, and it’s all normal to you.

advanceDNA:


Where ìn my comment did i say it is acceptable today..??

Killed for Asking for wife....?? Please go and read ur bible well if u have one and dont know the story.... he was killed for treason...he forcefulky took the throne with a sitting king still alive...

tctrills:

Oga, what is it that you have against my comments. Is there anything I wrote that you disagree with?

advanceDNA:


Yawn!!

immortalmortal:
That's treason. Those days it was considered a treasonable offence if you slept with the king's wife or concubines or anyone the king has obviously slept with, let alone marriage.

wirinet:


Adonija was murdered for treason? Please show me how he forcefully took the throne of his brother king David.
I dey fear you people o. You are no different from ISIS.

illicit:
Adonijah was already guilty of death for rebelling against his dad, king David

When King David was dying, he instructed Solomon to put some collaborators and offenders to death albeit diplomatically

So that was it...

King Solomon was waiting for the opportunity...

When Adonijah approached King Solomon's mum, Batsheiba, to talk to the king for him so as to marry king David's last wife.
That was the last straw that broke his camels spine...

It was easily perceived that he wasn't contented with his position/situation and wanted more

Very soon, he might want the throne

So Solomon just carried out his father's last instruction

He wasn't wrong

famozine1:

advanceDNA:


Solomon considered adonija's action as being covetous of the what belongs to the king's office....he not only wanted the girl, he wanted the throne.......its a treasonable offence..
..its Solomon's discretion to either put such a person to death or not...in my opinion...he would be stupíd to leave such a person alive...

.. however we are in mordern times that laws are different....even kings do not have final say over capital punishment....

advanceDNA:


We can dialogue without being religious... but hatred for religion is making u bring religiin into a dialogue thats not even religious....


U need help man...dont let a God u feel dorsnt exist live rent free in ur head

FalseProphet1:
You see after David killed Uriah and stole his wife Bathsheba, God cursed David's lineage and said that even though he committed the sin in secrete, he would bear the same publicly.

Ammon raped his sister Tamar.

Absolom killed his brother Ammon for raping his sister Tamar.

Absolom had sex with David's concubines on the roof for all Israel to see.

Solomon killed his brother Adonija because of a girl.

Solomon went on to have over 700 wives and 300 concubines of which I'm very sure that girl he killed his brother for was among.

This was happening because David their father couldn't keep his díck one place.

This I have seen.

Maynman:

Don’t be an hypocrite, if anything it was you that brought In “religious” into the discussion. Not to forget your subtle insult, which i will be dishing back henceforth.
There is nothing to hate on nonsense, it’s like hating thanos.

You need freedom man.. don’t let a jewish deity you read in a jewish book take you in bondage forever.

Vinnie2000:


Was she David's Wife? 🤔😏.

I think it was a Young Girl Solomon Arranged for his father David, to 'Ease his pains'.🤨

And David Rejected her!

So Adonijah was like, If You no Want am, I want the Fresh Babe o.
