Old King David and Solomon's Coronation

King David was old and advanced in years, and Adonijah attempted to make himself king. The prophet Nathan and Bathsheba reported to David, and David kept his oath, commanding the priest Zadok and the prophet Nathan to anoint Solomon as the new king of Israel. Solomon rode on David's mule to the Gihon Spring to be anointed, the people shouted and celebrated, and Adonijah's scheme was thwarted.
