“I pray thee, forgive the trespass of thine handmaid: for the Lord will certainly make my lord a sure house because my lord fighteth the battles of the Lord, and evil hath not been found in thee all thy days” (1 Samuel 25:28).
As she appealed to David, Abigail was so wise to remember his relationship with the Lord. Even though she didn’t do anything wrong, she decided this matter wasn’t about who was wrong or right. She apologized in behalf of her husband. Often times problems between two people are corrected when someone takes the initiative to apologize. David noticed her wisdom and was impressed by it.
