This feast was part of his self-coronation celebration, a common practice in ancient Near Eastern cultures to solidify claims to the throne. The gathering of guests, including influential figures, was intended to gain support for his kingship. This event parallels Absalom's earlier rebellion against David, highlighting the recurring theme of familial strife and the consequences of ambition outside God's will.<p><b>when they heard the sound of the ram&#8217;s horn</b><br>The ram's horn, or shofar, was traditionally used in Israel for significant announcements, such as the coronation of a king or the call to worship. Its sound signified a divine or royal proclamation, often associated with God's intervention or the anointing of a new leader. In this context, the horn announced Solomon's anointing as king, orchestrated by Nathan the prophet and Zadok the priest, signifying divine approval and the fulfillment of God's promise to David regarding his lineage.<p><b>&#8220;Why is the city in such a loud uproar?&#8221; asked Joab</b><br>Joab, David's military commander, was a key figure in the political landscape of Israel. His question reflects his surprise and concern over the unexpected commotion in Jerusalem. The uproar was due to the public celebration of Solomon's anointing, which contrasted sharply with Adonijah's private feast. Joab's inquiry indicates his lack of awareness of David's decision to appoint Solomon, highlighting the tension and division within the kingdom. This moment underscores the theme of divine sovereignty, as God's chosen leader, Solomon, is established despite human schemes.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/a/adonijah.htm">Adonijah</a></b><br>The son of King David who attempted to declare himself king without his father's blessing.
