1 Kings 1:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 1:16

And Bathsheba bowed, and did obeisance to the king
Not only as being her husband, but her sovereign; and this behaviour might intimate, that she had something to say to him, and more than to inquire of his health:

and the king said, wouldest thou?
what hast thou to say to me? or to ask of me? what is thy will and pleasure, or thine errand to me?
