2 Samuel 2:1–5:5 is a distinct literary unit in the book, beginning with David’s anointing at Hebron as king of Judah and concluding with his anointing at Hebron as king of Israel.1
In David’s rise and fall, he fulfills major prophecies regarding the rise of the tribe of Judah (Genesis 49:10), the determination of the place where the Lord will put his name for his dwelling (Deuteronomy 12:5), the acquisition of territories promised since the days of Abraham (Genesis 12:7; Genesis 15:18–21; Genesis 17:8), and the destruction of Moab, Edom, and Amalek (Numbers 24:17–21).2
1 Après cela, David consulta l'Eternel, en disant: Monterai-je dans une des villes de Juda? L'Eternel lui répondit: Monte. David dit: Où monterai-je? Et l'Eternel répondit: A Hébron.
