"You are the man." These words, spoken to King David by the prophet Nathan in the passage just before today's first reading, were a wake-up call to David that he had done wrong in taking the wife of Uriah and having Uriah killed in battle. The story that woke David up to his own guilt was about a rich man who had many sheep, but took and slaughtered the only sheep of a poor man. David thought the man should be punished, but when Na- than made known to him that this story was about David himself, David woke up to his own sin and repented, and the Lord forgave him. |
