Who was abigails husband in the bible?

Answer 1

(1 Samuel 25:2, 3) 2 Now there was a man in Ma′on, and his work was in Car′mel. And the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats; and he came to be [engaged] in shearing his sheep at Car′mel. 3 And the man's name was Na′bal, and his wife's name was Ab′i·gail. . . .

Answer 2

There were two Abigail's mentioned in The Bible, neither identified as a Queen.

The first was one of David's wives. She was originally the wife of a man named Nabal, but after her husband died David took her as a wife.

The second was one of David's two sisters (possibly half-sisters) mentioned in:

(1 Chronicles 2:13-17) 13 Jes′se, in turn, became father to his firstborn E·li′ab, and A·bin′a·dab the second, and Shim′e·a the third, 14 Ne·than′el the fourth, Rad′dai the fifth, 15 O′zem the sixth, David the seventh. 16 And their sisters were Ze·ru′iah and Ab′i·gail; and the sons of Ze·ru′iah were A·bish′ai and Jo′ab and As′a·hel, three. 17 As for Ab′i·gail, she gave birth to A·ma′sa; and the father of A·ma′sa was Je′ther the Ish′ma·el·ite.

Answer 3

In the Hebrew texts, Abigail was a wife of David. She saved his life by warning him of her husband's treachery, and David later married her himself.
