1. Son of David and Bathsheba. 2 Sam. 5: 14; 1 Chr. 3: 5; 1 Chr. 14: 4; Luke 3: 31.
2. The prophet, who held an influential position during the reigns of David and Solomon. He is first mentioned when David had in his heart to build a house to Jehovah. Nathan at first encouraged the proposition, but afterwards had a special message from God to direct David otherwise. It was Nathan who had to condemn David's conduct with respect to Bathsheba and her husband; he delicately brought the sin home to his conscience by means of a suited parable. He also took a prominent part in securing the throne for Solomon, 2 Sam. 7: 2-17; 2 Sam. 12: 1-25; 1 Kings 1: 8-45; 1 Chr. 17: 1-15; 2 Chr. 29: 25; Ps. 51: title. He wrote a 'book' containing the Acts of David the king and of Solomon, which does not form a part of scripture. 1 Chr. 29: 29; 2 Chr. 9: 29.
