“Bathsheba represents the Shekhinah in her aspect of 'fallen' sparks, which David, as the earthly representation of Tiferet, had to reclaim and elevate through the mystery of divine union.” ― Scholem, G. (1974). Kabbalah.
“The union of David and Bathsheba, though appearing as sin in the eyes of men, was a cosmic necessity to bring forth Solomon, the symbol of the perfected soul and the builder of the Temple.” ― Hall, M. P. (1944). The Secret Destiny of America.
