Her account is found in the books of 2 Samuel and 1 Kings, and she is also mentioned in 1 Chronicles and the Psalms. Bath-sheba's narrative is pivotal in the history of Israel's monarchy and provides profound insights into themes of sin, repentance, and divine grace.<br><br><b>Background and Family</b><br><br>Bath-sheba was the daughter of Eliam (<a href="/2_samuel/11-3.htm">2 Samuel 11:3</a>), also known as Ammiel (<a href="/1_chronicles/3-5.htm">1 Chronicles 3:5</a>), and the granddaughter of Ahithophel, one of David's counselors (<a href="/2_samuel/23-34.htm">2 Samuel 23:34</a>). She was married to Uriah the Hittite, a loyal and valiant soldier in David's army (<a href="/2_samuel/11-3.htm">2 Samuel 11:3</a>). Her name, Bath-sheba, means "daughter of the oath" or "daughter of abundance."<br><br><b>Encounter with King David</b><br><br>The most well-known episode involving Bath-sheba is her encounter with King David, as recorded in <a href="/bsb/2_samuel/11.htm">2 Samuel 11</a>. While her husband Uriah was away at war, David saw Bath-sheba bathing and was captivated by her beauty. Despite knowing she was married, David sent for her and committed adultery with her, resulting in her pregnancy (<a href="/2_samuel/11-2.htm">2 Samuel 11:2-5</a>).<br><br>In an attempt to conceal his sin, David summoned Uriah from the battlefield, hoping he would go home to his wife and thus provide a cover for the pregnancy. However, Uriah's loyalty to his fellow soldiers and his sense of duty prevented him from doing so (<a href="/2_samuel/11-6.htm">2 Samuel 11:6-13</a>). Consequently, David orchestrated Uriah's death by placing him in the front lines of battle, where he was killed (<a href="/2_samuel/11-14.htm">2 Samuel 11:14-17</a>).<br><br><b>Marriage to David and the Birth of Solomon</b><br><br>After Uriah's death, Bath-sheba became David's wife and bore him a son. However, the child conceived in adultery died shortly after birth as a consequence of David's sin, as pronounced by the prophet Nathan (<a href="/2_samuel/12-14.htm">2 Samuel 12:14-18</a>). David's heartfelt repentance is captured in <a href="/bsb/psalms/51.htm">Psalm 51</a>, a poignant expression of his remorse and plea for God's mercy.<br><br>Bath-sheba later gave birth to Solomon, who would become one of Israel's greatest kings. The Lord loved Solomon, and he was also called Jedidiah, meaning "beloved of the Lord" (<a href="/2_samuel/12-24.htm">2 Samuel 12:24-25</a>).<br><br><b>Role in Solomon's Ascension</b><br><br>Bath-sheba played a crucial role in securing Solomon's succession to the throne. As David's health declined, Bath-sheba, with the support of the prophet Nathan, reminded David of his promise that Solomon would succeed him as king (<a href="/1_kings/1-11.htm">1 Kings 1:11-21</a>). David affirmed this promise, and Solomon was anointed king, ensuring the continuation of David's dynasty (<a href="/1_kings/1-28.htm">1 Kings 1:28-40</a>).<br><br><b>Legacy and Significance</b><br><br>Bath-sheba's account is a testament to God's redemptive power and the fulfillment of His purposes despite human failings. Her inclusion in the genealogy of Jesus Christ, as recorded in <a href="/matthew/1-6.htm">Matthew 1:6</a>, underscores her importance in the messianic lineage. Bath-sheba's life, marked by personal tragedy and divine grace, serves as a profound narrative of repentance, forgiveness, and the sovereignty of God in the unfolding of His divine plan.<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Bath-Sheba</span><p>The wife of Uriah, and probably granddaughter of Atithophel which see. David first committed adultery with her, then caused her husband to be slain, and afterwards took her to wife. These sins displeased Jehovah, who sent the prophet Nathan to David, with the parable of the ewe lamb, <a href="/2_samuel/12-1.htm">2 Samuel 12:1</a>. David bitterly repented, but was yet punished, <a href="/2_samuel/11-12.htm">2 Samuel 11:12</a>. Bath-sheba was the mother of Solomon, whose succession to the throne she took pains to secure, <a href="/1_kings/1-15.htm">1 Kings 1:15</a>. She is afterwards mentioned in the history of Adonijah, <a href="/context/1_kings/2-13.htm">1 Kings 2:13</a>, in the title of <a href="/context/psalms/51-1.htm">Psalm 51:1</a>, and among the ancestors of Christ, <a href="/matthew/1-6.htm">Matthew 1:6</a>. </p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Daughter of the oath, or of seven, called also Bath-shu'a (<a href="/1_chronicles/3-5.htm">1 Chronicles 3:5</a>), was the daughter of Eliam (<a href="/2_samuel/11-3.htm">2 Samuel 11:3</a>) or Ammiel (<a href="/1_chronicles/3-5.htm">1 Chronicles 3:5</a>), and wife of Uriah the Hittite. David committed adultery with her (<a href="/2_samuel/11-4.htm">2 Samuel 11:4</a>, 5; <a href="/psalms/51-1.htm">Psalm 51:1</a>).

She was the beautiful wife of Uriah the Hittite, and because of her beauty was forced by David to commit adultery (<a href="/2_samuel/11-2.htm">2 Samuel 11:2</a> <a href="/nasb/psalms/51.htm">Psalm 51</a>). Her husband Uriah was treacherously killed by the order of David (<a href="/2_samuel/11-6.htm">2 Samuel 11:6</a>). After the death of her husband David made her his wife and she lived with him in the palace (<a href="/2_samuel/11-27.htm">2 Samuel 11:27</a>). Four sons sprang from this marriage (<a href="/2_samuel/5-14.htm">2 Samuel 5:14</a> <a href="/1_chronicles/3-5.htm">1 Chronicles 3:5</a>), after the first child, the adulterine, had died (<a href="/2_samuel/12-14.htm">2 Samuel 12:14</a>). With the help of the prophet Nathan she renders futile the usurpation of Adonijah and craftily secures the throne for her son Solomon (<a href="/1_kings/1-11.htm">1 Kings 1:11</a>). Later Adonijah succeeds in deceiving Bath-sheba, but his plan is frustrated by the king (<a href="/1_kings/2-13.htm">1 Kings 2:13</a>).
