 Uriah The Hittite
The account is preserved in 2 Sa 11, where he is introduced as the husband of Bath-sheba, which means, "Daughter of the oath." Remembering that Christ is God, in relation to Whom Israel is frequently described as His adulterous wife, it isn't difficult to see here a picture of Christ and Israel.

She is "Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite" (verse 3).
Eliam and Uriah are two of David's elite mighty men, with whom he has spent untold hours around the campfires over the years (see 2 Samuel 23:34,39).
The name Uriah means "Flame of the Eternal" or "The Eternal Is Light." As he is called a Hittite, it is apparent that he is probably a foreign mercenary who became a worshiper of the God of Israel.

The way Joab intended, via the messenger, to answer David’s indignant anger was also brutally to the point: "Also, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead." David would have understood that Joab’s strange military strategy was not a failure of military judgment but something necessitated by the king’s desire to eliminate Uriah.
He may even, by describing Uriah the Hittite as "your servant," be scolding David for having given him such an order.
Moreover, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead" (verses 23-24).
