2 Samuel 24 — The King Who Built an Altar

Описание: Welcome to the final chapter of 2 Samuel — a closing that ends not with triumph, but with repentance and sacrifice.

In 2 Samuel 24, David numbers the people, and what looks like strategy is revealed as something deeper: pride and misplaced trust. Yet even here, we see mercy. David’s heart is convicted, he confesses quickly, and he chooses to fall into the hands of the Lord—because His mercies are great.

This chapter shows us:

• A sin that revealed the heart
• A heart that still responds to conviction
• The cost of sin and the weight of leadership
• The altar that stopped judgment—and why the location matters

David refused a free offering: “Nor will I offer… with that which costs me nothing.” True worship costs something. And judgment stopped where sacrifice was made.

The book ends where it should: at an altar on Mount Moriah—pointing us to the greater Son of David. Even the best king needs a better King.
