1 Kings 1

1 Kings 1:1-4

Appears in: S2:E5 — Spirit (17:30-17:35)

Jesus and John the Baptist joke about the end of King David's life.
1. 1 Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.
2. 2 Wherefore his servants said unto him, Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin: and let her stand before the king, and let her cherish him, and let her lie in thy bosom, that my lord the king may get heat.
3. 3 So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of Israel, and found Abishag a Shunammite, and brought her to the king.
4. 4 And the damsel was very fair, and cherished the king, and ministered to him: but the king knew her not.
