2 Samuel 8-10: David’s Kindness for Mephibosheth
David is a man of action. So much so, that one gets the impression that he thrives in motion and cannot be still. From herding sheep and delivering food to his brothers on the front lines as a boy to hiding in caves to escape Saul and protecting the Philistines for pay while secretly sabotaging Israel’s enemies. The man is clever and makes good use of his time. But all of that is over.
David is king. He doesn’t have to do it all. He has people, who have people. Yet, David has been told he can’t build a house for God because too much blood is on his hands. So what is he supposed to do? It is unsurprising that while looking for something he can do God leads him to do something that everyone else has failed to do – secure the Promised Land. David must go to war.
In 2 Samuel 8, David takes action to build the nation God had planned for Israel. David has already united Israel, now he will greatly expand its boundaries.
