22So they pitched a tent for Absalom on the roof [of the king’s palace], and 16:22 This outrageous act was an assumption of absolute power, and signified an irreversible break in Absalom’s relationship with his father. Nathan the prophet had prophesied that David would be publicly humiliated in this way.Absalom went in to his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel. [2 Sam 12:11, 12]
