On Sunday evening, March 3, 2024, Cole Tuck continued his sermon series, "A Man After God’s Own Heart," with a message titled "Tekoa and Shimei." The sermon delved into the biblical narratives surrounding two lesser-known figures: the woman of Tekoa and Shimei.
The woman of Tekoa is an enigmatic character from the Hebrew Bible, appearing in 2 Samuel 14. She emerges in the aftermath of Absalom's exile following his murder of Amnon. Joab, seeking to reconcile Absalom with King David, dispatches to Tekoa to enlist the help of a "wise woman."
Shimei, on the other hand, is described as a Benjamite of Bahurim and the son of Gera. He belongs to "the family of the house of Saul" (2 Samuel 16:5–14, 19:16–23; 1 Kings 2:8–9, 36–46). Shimei gains mention as one of David's tormentors during his flight from Absalom and later as someone who pleads for David's forgiveness upon the king's return.
Cole explored the significance of these two characters within biblical contexts, drawing parallels between their actions and traits and providing insights into themes such as forgiveness, redemption, and the complexities of human relationships.
