Four chapters are given to analyses of 2 Samuel 11: the first looks at the ambiguity in (and textual variants of) its first verse, the second deals with the 4QSam identification in 11:3 of Uriah as "the armor-bearer of Joab," the third presents Joab as a reader-response critic changing David's orders about how to kill Uriah in order to make them more practical, and the fourth looks at the different presentations of Joab's messenger to David in MT and LXX.
