Graphic Bible · Scene 2 of 7

A representative gathering of military, priestly and household officers. Benaiah and Zadok retain established designs. The source lists Abiathar despite the earlier dismissal; treat this as an administrative roster, not a scene inventing his reinstatement.
Artwork is an interpretation. Scripture is quoted from the People's Open Bible.
