In this episode we explore Psalm 3 — "A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom, his son" — and the family drama behind it from 2 Samuel. We trace the events involving Amnon, Tamar, and Absalom, David's exile, and the rise of Absalom's rebellion, then return to Psalm 3 to examine David's movement from despair to trust and the psalm's concluding praise that salvation belongs to the Lord.
