Contextual Overview

11 Then Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, Have you not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith reigns, and David our lord does not know it? 12 Now therefore come, let me, I pray you, give you counsel, that you may save your own life, and the life of your son Solomon. 13 Go and get in to king David, and say to him, Did you not, my lord, O king, swear to your slave, saying, Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? why then does Adonijah reign? 14 Look, while you yet talk there with the king, I also will come in after you, and confirm your words. 15 And Bathsheba went in to the king into the chamber: and the king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite was ministering to the king. 16 And Bathsheba bowed, and did obeisance to the king. And the king said, What do you want? 17 And she said to him, My lord, you swore by Yahweh your God to your slave, [saying], Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne. 18 And now, look, Adonijah reigns; and you, my lord the king, do not know it: 19 and he has slain oxen and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and has called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host; but Solomon your slave he has not called. 20 And you, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, that you should tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But me, [even] me thy servant,.... Meaning himself, Nathan the prophet, who was David's servant, his seer, and counsellor:

and Zadok the priest; for whom David had a great respect:

and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; who was captain of his bodyguards; here Nathan observes more than Bathsheba had, and supplies what she had omitted, and so filled up her words, as in 1 Kings 1:14;

and thy servant Solomon, hath he not called; which showed his ill intention.
