AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Samuel 6:23 Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death. |
Bible Question: Can you explain why Michal had no children? |
Bible Answer: And David was dancing before the LORD with all his might, and David was wearing a linen ephod. 2 Samuel 6:14. An Ephod was representative of priestly divination. Michal the daughter of Saul looked out of the window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. 6:16 No doubt, Michal condemned David in her heart for what she considered the undignified actions of a King. Under the circumstances, and considering Davids having "disrobed in sight of the slave girls," v:20, one might consider Michal within her rights as his wife, yet one should keep in mind that even a King must humble himself before the Lord who exalts. 1 Sa 2:7-8 No doubt, Michal's condemnation to the disgrace of childlessness, was a dirrect result of her condemnation of the one to whom she had vowed allegiance, both as King and husband. |
