Contextual Overview
12 Now Solomon was king. He sat on the throne of his father David and was in complete control of his kingdom. 13 One day Adonijah, the son of Haggith, went to Solomon's mother, Bathsheba. She asked him, "Do you come in peace?" Adonijah answered, "Yes, this is a peaceful visit. 14 I have something to ask you." Bathsheba said, "Then speak." 15 Adonijah said, "You know that at one time the kingdom was mine. All the people of Israel wanted me to be their king. But things have changed, and now my brother is the king. The Lord chose him to be king. 16 But now I have one thing to ask you. Please don't refuse me." Bathsheba answered, "What do you want?" 17 Adonijah said, "I know that King Solomon will do whatever you ask. So please ask him to let me marry Abishag, the woman from Shunem." 18 Then Bathsheba said, "Very well, I will speak to the king for you." 19 So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to talk with him. When the king saw her, he stood up, bowed before her, and then sat back down. He told some servants to bring another throne for his mother, and she sat down at his right side. 20 Bathsheba said to him, "I have one small thing to ask you. Please don't refuse me." The king answered, "Ask whatever you want, mother. I will not refuse you." 21 So Bathsheba said, "Let your brother Adonijah marry Abishag, the woman from Shunem."
