2 Samuel 11:2

DAVID COMMITS ADULTERY WITH BATH-SHEBA. (II Samuel 11:2-12)

it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed—The Hebrews, like other Orientals, rose at daybreak, and always took a nap during the heat of the day. Afterwards they lounged in the cool of the evening on their flat-roofed terraces. It is probable that David had ascended to enjoy the open-air refreshment earlier than usual.
