* 11:5 And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child. * 11:4 And David sent messengers, and took her and she came in unto him, and he lay with her for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.
And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite? * 11:3 And David sent and inquired after the woman. * 11:2 And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
* 11:1 And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. Reading the story of David and Absalom will help the reader to understand some of Faulkner's plotting decisions and the title of the book. In writing Absalom, Absalom!, William Faulkner was inspired by many things-but one of his big inspirations was the biblical story of King David and his son Absalom in the second book of Samuel.
