GUIDE TO THE SCRIPTURES NATHAN
See also David
An Old Testament prophet at the time of King David. When David offered to build a temple for the Lord, the Lord instructed Nathan to tell David he was not to build it. Nathan also rebuked David for causing the death of Uriah, one of his warriors, and for taking Uriahs wife, Bathsheba (2 Sam. 12: 1-15; D&C 132: 38-39). Zadok, with Nathan, anointed Davids son Solomon king (1 Kgs. 1: 38-39, 45).
