Does the theological Einstein teach that the seating of Bathsheba next to her son, Solomon, in her act of intercessing for Adonijah, as symbolic of Mary? If so, does he teach that that solitary case proved that Bathsheba was not supposed to be intercessing in such matters? (Adonijah could have gone direct in his request, if he knew it was legit, with no need of an intercessor. But he knew it wasnt.)
Solomon prior to hearing the request says that he will not refuse his mother. After hearing the request, he equates giving Abishag to Adonijah to giving the kingdom to Adonijah. Solomon responds to the request by killing Adonijah. This would indicate that Bathsheba could intercede for someone, but there are limits on the intercession. With Mary, Mary can intercede for us with Christ; however, there are limits on the intercession. We cannot be given something through Mary that is sinful, .e.g, winning a free ticket to a strip club. Since Solomon killed Adonijah, it is reasonable to conclude that if we ask for Mary's intercession for something we shouldn't have, it will be worse than otherwise.

**Solomon prior to hearing the request says that he will not refuse his mother.**
Well, he shorr enuff did refuse his mother in the end. As I said: Adonijah could have gone direct in his request, if he knew it was legit, with no need of an intercessor.
Likewise, we, and as many other fellow mortal believers, that make a request individually, or in unity of faith, can go direct to the ‘King’.
**With Mary, Mary can intercede for us with Christ;**
Don’t you believe that Christ can ‘hear’ your request before it even leaves your lips?
