David Runs from His Son
Psalm 3 represents the first of 73 psalms that are attributed to Davidic authorship. This is a sad Psalm because of the events that led up to it. You will recall that David succumbed to the temptation to commit adultery with Bathsheba (cf. 2 Samuel 11). What is interesting about the events described in 2 Samuel 11 is the steps that occurred, which brought David to a point of not only committing adultery with another man’s wife, but of committing murder in a vain attempt to keep his adultery secret.
