Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.
Of all the somewhat questionable things David may have done, the only one the Bible condemns him for is his actions concerning Bathsheba and her husband. When David saw a woman bathing on a rooftop nearby and inquired as to who she was, he was told she was the wife of Uriah the Hittite. That should have stopped the whole thing right there. Uriah was one of David's mighty men and had been with David at least since he became king in Jerusalem, but likely since he was king in Hebron and possibly even while he was fleeing from Saul. The point is that David knew Uriah well enough that it should have been offensive to him to even consider stealing his friend's wife.
But David knew Uriah was at war with the rest of the men and did not figure his sexual sin would ever be discovered. But then Bathsheba let David know she was pregnant. David worked hard to cover up his sin but, unable to do so, ultimately had Uriah murdered.
