2 Samuel 20:14-26
All the troops with Joab came and besieged Sheba in Abel Beth Maakah. They built a siege ramp up to the city, and it stood against the outer fortifications. While they were battering the wall to bring it down, a wise woman called from the city, “Listen! Listen! Tell Joab to come here so I can speak to him.”
We are peaceful and faithful in Israel. You are trying to destroy a city that is a mother in Israel. Why do you want to swallow up the Lord’s inheritance? “Far be it from me!” Joab replied, “Far be it from me to swallow up or destroy! That is not the case. A man named Sheba son of Bikri, from the hill country of Ephraim, has lifted up his hand against the king, against David. Hand over this one man, and I’ll withdraw from the city.
Then the woman went to all the people with her wise advice, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bikri and threw it to Joab. So he sounded the trumpet, and his men dispersed from the city, each returning to his home. And Joab went back to the king in Jerusalem.
A wise woman helped her city won't be destroyed.
Why?
War is terrible but a wise man can stop the war and get peace.
Sheba is one man who has not good training for battle, so his troop soon besieged by Joab.

為何此婦女有此號召力?
示巴的跟隨著為何不支持示巴?
此處神的名再被提起。
成也婦人,敗也婦人!因別示巴使大衛國遭禍害,因為這個婦人結束叛亂。不義之人使城破傾覆,義人使城的人得救贖
一個人的罪使人國破家亡,一個人的義使人得救贖。神要因一個義人的禱告而蒙福。
大衛本來指派亞瑪撒擔任元帥,亞瑪撒死了應該是亞比塞成為元帥,結果居然是約押卻成為元帥,顯然大衛的權柄無法治裁這個兇手。
家庭何等重要,這裏看不到他的孩子成為王,因為大衛犯罪後無力賜福他的家。

How?
Do not make us into emotional action, think more and always consider the benefit of most people.
