2 Samuel / Question
Question source
2 Samuel
David made Michal’s return a condition for Abner’s approach, telling him not to see his face unless she came. Ish-bosheth then sent and took her from her husband Paltiel. See 2 Samuel 3:13–16.
13He said, Well; I will make a league with you; but one thing I require of you: that is, you shall not see my face, except you first bring Michal, Saul`s daughter, when you come to see my face.
14David sent messengers to Ish-bosheth, Saul`s son, saying, Deliver me my wife Michal, whom I pledged to be married to me for one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.
15Ish-bosheth sent, and took her from her husband, even from Paltiel the son of Laish.
16Her husband went with her, weeping as he went, and followed her to Bahurim. Then said Abner to him, Go, return: and he returned.
