1000 Bathsheba Crowned Instance Nathan Prophet Recognised Solomon Successor Testament
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment of Solomon's anointing and coronation as the new king of Israel, succeeding his father David. The scene is depicted with great detail and solemnity, reflecting the historical significance of this event in the Old Testament of the Bible. The image dates back to circa 1000 BC and is believed to have been inspired by the biblical account of 1 Kings 1:26-39. According to the story, Bathsheba, the wife of King David, and the prophet Nathan, conspire to ensure that Solomon, rather than David's older son Adonijah, is recognized as the rightful heir to the throne. With the support of Nathan and Bathsheba, Solomon is brought before the elders of Israel and anointed with oil as the new king. The image shows Solomon seated on a throne, dressed in royal robes, with a crown on his head. He is surrounded by the elders of Israel, who hold up their hands in blessing. Bathsheba stands behind him, holding a scroll, while Nathan, with a staff in hand, looks on approvingly. The scene is set against a backdrop of richly decorated walls and intricate architectural details, further emphasizing the grandeur and importance of the moment. This image is a powerful reminder of the intricacies of biblical history and the role of prophets and family dynamics in shaping the course of events. It also showcases the artistic skill and detail of ancient artisans, whose work continues to inspire and captivate us today.
