:''For other biblical people with this name, see Nathan (given name).'' Nathan the Prophet ((ヘブライ語:נתן הנביא); fl. c. 1000 BC) is a person in the Hebrew Bible. His actions are described in the Books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles (especially , ). According to 2 Samuel, he was a court prophet who lived in the time of King David. He announced to David the covenant God was making with him (2 Samuel 7), and he came to David to reprimand him over his committing adultery with Bathsheba while she was the wife of Uriah the Hittite whose death the King had also arranged to hide his previous transgression (2 Samuel 11-12). According to Chronicles, Nathan wrote histories of the reigns of both David () and Solomon (), and was involved in the music of the temple (see 2 Chronicles 29:25). In it is Nathan who tells the dying David of the plot of Adonijah to become king, resulting in Solomon being proclaimed king instead. King David named one of his sons Nathan, possibly after the prophet. The feast day of Nathan the Prophet is on 24 October. In the Eastern Orthodox Church, and those Eastern Catholic Churches which follow the Byzantine Rite, he is commemorated as a saint on the Sunday of the Holy Fathers (i.e., the Sunday before the Great Feast of the Nativity of the Lord). ==See also== *Book of Nathan the Prophet and History of Nathan the Prophet *Nathan (son of David) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nathan (prophet)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
