 You know, down deep inside, I'm sure David really did love Absalom. In fact, I know he loved Absalom. If you read it, you remember the king said, Oh, Absalom, my son, my son, would to God I had died for thee, he said. But you know, there are fathers who love their children who just don't know how to express it. They don't know how to do discipline. They don't know how to do reconciliation issues. And that was David.
