In the Bible
Although David’s mother is not named in the Bible, she is still mentioned there with her husband: when David was worried about the safety of his parents, he went to Mizpah in Moab to ask permission from the king to allow his father and mother to stay under the royal protection of the king:
- And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said unto the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth, and be with you, till I know what God will do for me.
They stayed there until David's fortunes took a turn for the better.
Psalm 86:16, attributed to David, refers to the writer's mother:
- Turn to me and have mercy on me; show your strength in behalf of your servant; save me, because I serve you just as my mother did.
