You Are the Man

Nathan's parable of the poor man's beloved lamb traps King David in his own verdict, and the story is held up as a mirror for every reader. Apart from Jesus there are no heroes in the Bible, only active sinners met by grace. Sin's first move is to blind us to ourselves, and the living word of God, spoken through the prophet, restores our sight and turns us toward the Father's mercy.
