1- 2 Samuel 12:4 (ESV) 4 Now there came a traveler to the rich man, and he was unwilling to take one of his own flock or herd to prepare for the guest who had come to him, but he took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.”
RAF: Nathan’s portrayal of lust or desire as a traveler is most useful. It is a temporary thing that has the appearance of making legitimate demands, which we then try to meet by illegitimate means.
It WILL go away.
I don’t HAVE to give it a lamb.
I have legitimate means to deal with it. But I am unwilling to use those means.
