     In 2 Samuel 14, we see Joab found Absalom and brings him to David.

     In 2 Samuel 15, we see that Absalom was so vain he even wanted to be king.  He tried to turn the hearts of the Israelites against King David.  He set off riding in a chariot with 50 men ahead of him so the people thought he was an important prince.  The people really thought he was nice and looking at for them.  Absalom played a trick on his father.  The men who chose to follow Absalom, even the 200 men from David’s own court, were wicked men who hated God.  David fled with his wives, family, servants, and friends from Jerusalem.  David keeps the ark on Mt Zion.    He sent Hushai back to Absalom to pretend to be on Absalom’s side to give David an advantage.
