Bat-Sheva

The daughter of Eliam and wife of Uriah the Hittite, whom David saw bathing and took while Uriah was at war (2 Samuel 11:2-4). After the death of the first child, she bore Solomon, whom the LORD loved (2 Samuel 12:24). She secured the throne for Solomon when David was old (1 Kings 1:11-31). Matthew includes her in the genealogy of Jesus, naming her only as the wife of Uriah (Matthew 1:6). Her birth and death are not stated; the bar reflects an estimate from the narrative.
