1 Reyes 1:11 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 1:11

Wherefore Nathan spake unto Bathsheba the mother of Solomon,
&c.] Who not only had an interest in the king, being his wife, and an easy access to him, but had a special concern in this affair, as it affected her son, to whom the succession of the kingdom was designed and promised:

saying, hast thou not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith doth
reign?
has usurped the throne, and is proclaimed king by a party, who at least have drank his health as such; has taken the title, and is about to exercise the power of a king; this Bathsheba might not have heard of, and which he expresses in this manner to quicken her to make an immediate application to the king:

and David our Lord knoweth [it] not;
being so infirm, and in his bed, and nobody about him to inform him of it; it was done without his knowledge, and far from being with his consent and approbation.

1 Reyes 1:11 In-Context

9 Adonías se dirigió a la peña de Zohélet,
cerca del manantial de En-rogel, y allí sacrificó ovejas, ganado y terneros engordados. Invitó a todos sus hermanos —los demás hijos del rey David— y a todos los funcionarios reales de Judá;
10 pero no invitó al profeta Natán, ni a Benaía, ni a la guardia personal del rey, ni a su hermano Salomón.
11 Entonces Natán fue a ver a Betsabé, la madre de Salomón, y le preguntó: «¿No te has enterado de que el hijo de Haguit, Adonías, se proclamó rey, y nuestro señor David ni siquiera lo sabe?
12 Si deseas salvar tu vida y la de tu hijo Salomón, sigue mi consejo.
13 Ve ya mismo a ver al rey David y dile: “Mi señor el rey, ¿acaso no me hiciste un juramento cuando me dijiste: ‘Definitivamente tu hijo Salomón será el próximo rey y se sentará en mi trono’? Entonces, ¿por qué Adonías se ha proclamado rey?”.
