Absalom – The Son Who Stole His Own Father’s Throne | Bible Stories

Описание: Absalom was not just another prince in the Bible. He was the son who turned against his own father, King David, and tried to steal his throne. Handsome, charming, and deeply wounded, Absalom used his pain to fuel one of the most shocking betrayals in Scripture.

In this intense Bible story, we follow Absalom from the moment his sister Tamar is violated, to the murder of his brother Amnon, to three long years in exile. We watch him come back to Jerusalem, stand at the city gate, slowly steal the hearts of the people, launch a surprise rebellion in Hebron, and force David to flee his own city. Finally, we see the tragic end: Absalom hanging helpless in a tree, killed against David’s orders, and the king crying out, “My son, my son Absalom!”

This video walks step by step through 2 Samuel 13–18, staying faithful to the Bible while exposing the real issues behind Absalom’s fall:

a violated sister and a silent king

a father who refuses to confront sin in his own house

a son who turns pain into pride, revenge, and rebellion

a kingdom torn apart because anger and ambition went unchecked

If you want to understand how family conflict, unresolved anger, and passive leadership can destroy a home—and even a nation—this story will hit hard. It is not just history. It is a warning for today.
