kjv@1Chronicles:21:1 > > RandyP :

kjv@2Samuel:24:2-4 Suggests that David's men attempted to talk David out of this.

kjv@1Chronicles:21:12 > > RandyP :

God wants Gad to return David's answer, not David.

kjv@1Chronicles:21:1 > > RandyP :

The word for Satan here can also be translated adversary. It is hard to imagine what type of human or political adversary would have pricked or enticed David enough to make him do this, especially knowing such a census was forbidden. Given the way God responded and the measure to which God responded, it is my belief that the KJV translation Satan is highly possible.
