| Summary | "The Expositor's Bible: The Second Book of Samuel" by William Garden Blaikie is a theological commentary written in the late 19th century. This work meticulously examines the biblical text of 2 Samuel, focusing on the reign of King David and the complexities of his leadership, morality, and relationships. The commentary aims to provide insight into the historical, cultural, and spiritual dimensions of the narrative, making it suitable for readers interested in biblical scholarship and Christian history. At the start of the book, the narrative presents the aftermath of King Saul's death, delving into David's emotional turmoil and his lament for both Saul and Jonathan. The text emphasizes David's respect for Saul as God's anointed king and his heartache over the losses incurred by Israel, highlighting themes of forgiveness, loyalty, and the burdens of leadership. Blaikie clarifies the motivations behind David's actions and the moral consequences of the political upheaval in Israel. This opening sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the challenges David faces as he navigates both the personal and public ramifications of his ascendance to the throne amidst civil strife and power struggles.
