Absalom’s Rebellion and David’s Flight (2 Sam 15): The Emergence of the Ideal King David
View through CrossRef
Abstract
David’s depiction in 2 Sam 15 shows his absolute faith in YHWH and his sole reliance on Him. This portrayal accords with Dtn 17,14–20 and contrasts sharply with the characterization of Absalom. The description of Ittai’s oath in YHWH’s name is deemed an example of adherence to YHWH by non-Israelites. The narrative portrays the ideal relationship between the people (the Israelites and foreigners) and YHWH. It is construed to depict the essential objective of the Deuteronomists in the postexilic period. Consequently, 2 Sam 15 does not belong to the so-called Succession Narrative; instead, it represents a Deuteronomistic narrative accomplished by the Deuteronomists in the postexilic period to express their theological ideals and opinions.
