Nathan

Nathan was King David’s loyal prophet and was never afraid to tell David how to fix his mistakes. Nathan initially told King David that he could build the First Temple, but had to take it back after God appeared to him in a dream and explained that David was not the right person to build the Temple. Natan also admonished David for how he handled the situation with Batsheva and Uriah. Also, Nathan informed David of Adonijah’s attempt to become king, and he later anointed King Solomon.
