Context of 2 Samuel 13:9
7David sent a message to Tamar in the palace. He told her, ‘Go to your brother Amnon's house. Prepare some food for him to eat there.’ 8So Tamar went to Amnon's house. He was lying down on his bed. She took some flour and water and she mixed them together. She made the cakes while he watched her. Then she baked them. Then she put the cakes on a plate and she put them in front of him. But he refused to eat them. Instead, Amnon said, ‘Everyone must go out and leave me alone here.’ So everyone left him alone with Tamar. 10Then Amnon said to Tamar, ‘Bring the food here into my bedroom. Then you can use your own hand to feed me.’ So Tamar took the cakes that she had made. She brought them to Amnon in his bedroom. 11But when she offered the cakes to him, he took hold of her. He said to her, ‘Come here, my sister! Come into bed with me.’
