Bible verse
Three sons were born to Absalom, and a daughter named Tamar, who was a beautiful woman.
2 Samuel 14:27 · BSB
The verses around it, from 2 Samuel 14.
23 So Joab got up, went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.
24 But the king added, “He may return to his house, but he must not see my face.” So Absalom returned to his own house, but he did not see the king.
25 Now there was not a man in all Israel as handsome and highly praised as Absalom. From the sole of his foot to the top of his head, he did not have a single flaw.
26 And when he cut the hair of his head—he shaved it every year because his hair got so heavy—he would weigh it out to be two hundred shekels, according to the royal standard.
27 Three sons were born to Absalom, and a daughter named Tamar, who was a beautiful woman.
28 Now Absalom lived in Jerusalem two years without seeing the face of the king.
29 Then he sent for Joab to send him to the king, but Joab refused to come to him. So Absalom sent a second time, but Joab still would not come.
30 Then Absalom said to his servants, “Look, Joab’s field is next to mine, and he has barley there. Go and set it on fire!” And Absalom’s servants set the field on fire.
31 Then Joab came to Absalom’s house and demanded, “Why did your servants set my field on fire?”
