Jerusalem: Made the Royal City

So David took up residence in the fortress and called it the City of David. He built it up all the way around, from the supporting terraces inward.

When David returned to his palace in Jerusalem, he took the ten concubines he had left to take care of the palace, and he placed them in a house under guard. He provided for them, but he no longer slept with them. They were confined until the day of their death, living as widows.
