Context — The Counsel of Ahithophel and Hushai
20Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give me counsel. What should we do?”
21Ahithophel replied, “Sleep with your father’s concubines, whom he has left to take care of the palace. When all Israel hears that you have become a stench to your father, then the hands of all who are with you will be strengthened.”
22So they pitched a tent for Absalom on the roof, and he slept with his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.
23Now in those days the advice of Ahithophel was like the consultation of the word of God. Such was the regard that both David and Absalom had for Ahithophel’s advice.Cross References

2 Samuel 16:22 Summary
[This verse shows how Absalom, David's son, rebelled against his father by sleeping with his father's concubines in public, which was a shameful act that humiliated David. This event was a result of Ahithophel's counsel, which was seen as wise and authoritative at the time, similar to how the Israelites trusted Moses in Exodus 14:31. By doing this, Absalom was trying to show that he was now in control and that his father was no longer the king. This act of rebellion is a reminder that our actions have consequences, and that we must be careful to follow God's will, as seen in Proverbs 3:5-6.]
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did Absalom sleep with his father's concubines in public?
Absalom slept with his father's concubines to show his contempt for his father, King David, and to demonstrate his claim to the throne, as advised by Ahithophel, as seen in 2 Samuel 16:21. This act was a deliberate attempt to shame David and assert his own power.
What was the significance of pitching a tent on the roof for Absalom?
The tent on the roof was a public display of Absalom's defiance against his father, and by sleeping with the concubines in it, he was making a statement that he was now in control, similar to how Moses would meet with God in a tent in Exodus 33:7-11.
How does this event relate to the rest of the story of David and Absalom?
This event marks a turning point in the conflict between David and Absalom, as it shows the depth of Absalom's rebellion and his willingness to humiliate his father publicly, which is a fulfillment of the prophecy spoken by Nathan in 2 Samuel 12:11-12.
What can we learn from Ahithophel's counsel to Absalom?
Ahithophel's counsel to Absalom serves as a warning about the dangers of seeking advice from those who do not have our best interests at heart, and the importance of seeking wisdom from God, as seen in Proverbs 11:14 and James 1:5-6.
Reflection Questions
- How do I respond when I feel wronged or overlooked by those in authority, and what can I learn from David's response to Absalom's rebellion?
- In what ways can I be tempted to seek power or control over others, and how can I humble myself before God like David did in Psalm 51?
- What are some ways I can demonstrate my commitment to following God's will, even when it's difficult or unpopular, like David did in 1 Samuel 30:6?
- How can I balance the desire for justice and accountability with the need for mercy and forgiveness, as seen in David's treatment of Absalom?
Gill's Exposition on 2 Samuel 16:22
So they spread Absalom a tent on the top of the house,.... On the top of his father's palace; this, as houses in Jerusalem and Judea were, was built flat, Deuteronomy 22:8; and it was on the very
Matthew Poole's Commentary on 2 Samuel 16:22
Upon the top of the house, to wit, of the king’ s palace, the very place from whence David had spied and gazed upon Bath-sheba, . So that his sin was legible in the very place of his punishment. Unto his father’ s concubines, i.e. to one or some of them; and by so doing did further make claim to the kingdom as his own; and, as it were, take possession of it; it being usual in the eastern countries to account the wives and concubines of the late king to belong of right to the successor: See Poole on . In the sight of all Israel; who saw him go into the tent, and thence concluded that he lay with them, as he had designed to do.
Trapp's Commentary on 2 Samuel 16:22
2 Samuel 16:22 So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father’ s concubines in the sight of all Israel.Ver. 22. Upon the top of the house.] Whence David first saw Bathsheba. And Absalom went in unto his father’ s concubines.] By a worse kind of incest than that of Amnon, or any other unless it were Amida above mentioned, or Pope John XII, as Luitprandus writeth. Lib. De Reb. Gest. in Europ.
Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Samuel 16:22
(22) A tent upon the top of the house.—Nathan had foretold that the nature of David’s public punishment should correspond to the character of his secret crime. The fact that this punishment takes place on the very roof where David had first yielded to his guilty passion makes it particularly striking.
Cambridge Bible on 2 Samuel 16:22
22. upon the top of the house] The fact that the very roof on which David was walking when he secretly conceived his great sin was the public scene of its punishment, and the nature of the punishment, corresponding to the nature of the sin, as Nathan had foretold, make this retribution signally striking. See ch. 2 Samuel 12:11-12; and cp. 2 Kings 9:25-26.
Whedon's Commentary on 2 Samuel 16:22
22. Upon the top of the house — That roof of the royal palace whence David took the lustful look upon Bathsheba. 2 Samuel 11:2. In the sight of all Israel — As Nathan’s bitter prophecy foretold. See 2 Samuel 12:11-12.
