The woman David saw bathing on a rooftop — later became Solomon's mother
open_in_newWhile her husband Uriah was at war, King David saw her bathing, summoned her, and she became pregnant (2 Samuel 11). David's attempt to cover it up led to Uriah's murder. The prophet Nathan confronted David, and their first child died. But Bathsheba later bore Solomon, who became king. She wielded significant political influence in Solomon's court (1 Kings 1-2).
