1 Kings 1:32
"And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And King David said, call me Zadok the priest,.... Not Abiathar the high priest, for he had joined Adonijah; and besides Zadok was David's favourite priest, and for him the

high priesthood was designed, as it was in a little time translated to him: and Nathan the prophet; who very probably went out of the room when Bathsheba was called in: and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; the captain of his guards: and they came before the king; who it is very likely sat up in his bed, and they stood around him.
