David’s ten concubines Bible story
Read 2 Samuel 20
- David had ten concubines.
- He left them in the palace when his son, Absalom, pursued him out of the throne.
- Absalom slept with the ten concubines openly in the sight of all Israel.
- After Absalom’s death, David returned to the palace. David refused to sleep with the ten concubines.
- This demonstrates a sense of morality even in the immorality of keeping ten concubines.
