In 2 Samuel 4, two treacherous men murder Ish-bosheth in his own bed and bring his head to David, claiming “The Lord has avenged you today.” David refuses their twisted theology, executes the murderers, and shows us how God sovereignly removes every obstacle so His chosen king can finally reign over all Israel — a powerful picture of the greater King, Jesus Christ, who crushes evil, offers grace to rebels, and makes an everlasting covenant with His people.
