SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:5
Y concibió la mujer, y envió a hacerlo saber a David, diciendo: Yo estoy embarazada.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Samuel 11:5
Verse 5. And the woman conceived] A proof of the observation on ver. 4; as that is the time in which women are most apt to conceive.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 5. And the woman conceived , etc.] Whereby the sin would be discovered, and shame, and disgrace, or worse, would follow upon it: and sent and told David, and said, I [am] with child ; this message she sent to David, that he might think of some ways and means to prevent the scandal that would fall both upon him and her, and the danger she was exposed unto; fearing the outcries of the people against her, in acting so unfaithful a part to her husband, so brave a man, who was now fighting for his king and country; and the rage and jealousy of her husband when he should come to the knowledge of it, and the death which by the law she was guilty of, even to be stoned with stones, (see John 8:5).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-5 - Observe the occasions of David's sin; what led to it. 1. Neglect of his business. He tarried at Jerusalem. When we are out of the way of ou duty, we are in temptation. 2. Love of ease: idleness gives grea advantage to the tempter. 3. A wandering eye. He had not, like Job made a covenant with his eyes, or, at this time, he had forgotten it And observe the steps of the sin. See how the way of sin is down-hill when men begin to do evil, they cannot soon stop. Observe the aggravations of the sin. How could David rebuke or punish that is others, of which he was conscious that he himself was guilty?
