Contextual Overview
14 Early the next morning, David wrote a letter and told Uriah to deliver it to Joab. 15 The letter said: "Put Uriah on the front line where the fighting is the worst. Then pull the troops back from him, so that he will be wounded and die." 16 Joab had been carefully watching the city of Rabbah, and he put Uriah in a place where he knew there were some of the enemy's best soldiers. 17 When the men of the city came out, they fought and killed some of David's soldiers—Uriah the Hittite was one of them. 18 Joab sent a messenger to tell David everything that was happening in the war. 19 He gave the messenger these orders: When you finish telling the king everything that has happened, 20 he may get angry and ask, "Why did you go so near the city to fight? Didn't you know they would shoot arrows from the wall? 21 Don't you know how Abimelech the son of Gideon was killed at Thebez? Didn't a woman kill him by dropping a large rock from the top of the city wall? Why did you go so close to the city walls?" Then you tell him, "One of your soldiers who was killed was Uriah the Hittite." 22 The messenger went to David and reported everything Joab had told him. 23 He added, "The enemy chased us from the wall and out into the open fields. But we pushed them back as far as the city gate.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead,.... The news of which were soon sent her by David, though it is very probable she knew nothing of the plot to take away his life; and, besides, David chose to have his death published abroad as soon as possible, the more to hide his sin:
she mourned for her husband; expressed tokens of mourning by shedding tears, putting on a mourning habit, seeing no company, and this continued for the space of seven days, it may be, 1 Samuel 31:13; as little time as possible was spent in this way, and the marriage hastened, that the adultery might not be discovered.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Bath-shebaâs mourning, like that of Abigail 1 Samuel 25:39-42, was probably limited to the customary time of seven days.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Samuel 11:26. She mourned for her husband. — The whole of her conduct indicates that she observed the form without feeling the power of sorrow. She lost a captain and got a king for her spouse; this must have been deep affliction indeed: and therefore: -
_____ Lachrymas non sponte cadentes
Effudit; gemitusque expressit pectore laeto.
"She shed reluctant tears, and forced out groans from a joyful heart."
