Nathan Reveals David’s Sin                2 Samuel 12:1-14 
o    David Remained Unrepentant For Between 9 Months & A Year
o    David’s Life Was Not Enjoyable (Ps 32:3-4)
o    The Confessing
o    The Trial
o    The LORD sent Nathan-He Did Not Go On His Own
o    And said unto him-Fearless & Prepared
o    The Elements of the Story:
o    Rich Man-David
o    Wealth Expressed in Livestock or Harems
o    Poor-Uriah
o    Poverty Expressed as One Ewe Lamb or Wife
o    As King, David Was Obligated to Justice for Poor Families
o    One little ewe lamb-Bathsheba
o    David Would Listen Because He Was Once a Shepherd Himself
o    Did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom-Just Like Uriah’s Words in 11:11
o    Was unto him as a daughter-A Beloved Pet Becomes Like Family
o    A traveler…wayfaring man… man that was come to him-Progression of Temptation to Sin
o    If We Open the Door, Sin Comes In As A Guest, But Soon Becomes the Master (Gen 4:6-7)
o    David’s anger was greatly kindled-Moved With Compassion, David Sentences Himself
o    Shall surely die-Deserves To or Is Worthy To Die
o    Restore the lamb fourfold-The Law (Ex 22:1)
o    How Easy It is To Be Convicted About Other People’s Sins (Matt 7:1-3)
o    The Verdicto    Thou art the man-Didn’t See it Coming (Prov 27:6)
o    First, I anointed thee-Jehovah’s Representative
o    His Sin Degraded the Kingly Office & Jehovah Himself
o    I gave thee thy master’s house- Possessions (Luke 12:48)
o    Second, despised the commandment of the LORD-Broke the Law
o    Third, slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon-Involved Others in Sin  
o    The Sentence
o    The sword shall never depart from thine house-Punishment Won’t Cease Until Your Death
o    The Fourfold Restitution:
o    Their Child Died
o    Amnon Slain
o    Absalom Slain & David’s Concubines Humiliated Publically (16:22)
o    Adonijah Slain
o    Punishments According to the Covenant (Lev 26 & Deut. 27-20)
o    God Would Slay Their Sons (Lev 26:17)
o    Take Away Their Children (Lev 26:22)
o    Give Their Wives to Others (Deut 28:30)
o    Take Israel Out of its Land Into Foreign Exile (Deut 28:63-68)
o    But the Covenant Also Included Repentance & Pardon (Deut 30)
o    The Pardon
o    I have sinned against the LORD-Finally, Sincere Repentance
o    Jehovah also hath put away thy sin-Grace (1 Jn 1:9 & Ps 130:3-4)
o    Thou shalt not die-Death Was the Legal Penalty for Adultery (Lev 20:10)
o    Given great occasion to the enemies of Jehovah to blaspheme-To Despise Jehovah’s Government
o    The child also that is born unto thee shall surely die-Consequences
