Can you guys give me a reason why David put the responsibility of bringing justice upon Joab for the murders of Abner and Amassa upon Solomon?
 
My guess - 1) Joab tried to supplant Solomon with Adonijah; he knew what he was doing, he didn't invite Solomon to the coronation, and 2) David was dying.
 
couldn't David, immediately after the suppression of the revolt by Absalom, simply bring justice upon Joab? Why did he have to wait so long?
