2 Samuel 20 and 21: Why is the Bible so bloody?

You would think that after Absalom’s defeat that now all Israel would be united under David . However Sheba, a troublemaker rises up and leads his own rebellion against the rulership of King David. He is ultimately crushed and Joab with violence takes back his position as commander of the army. In this section we consider a larger question: Why does God from the beginning of the Bible to its end institute blood sacrifice. We see that Christ has paid an infinite price to redeem us to himself. In fact we will consider just what exactly redemption is about.Sunday, 28 Nov 2010
