Sinopsis

First and Second Samuel trace the lives of three Jewish men in the eleventh century B.C.: Samuel, the last of the judges and the first of the prophets, Saul, the first of the kings, but rejected by God, and David, the beloved shepherd-king. Hannah, whose name means grace, &ldquo,asked of the Lord&rdquo, (the meaning of Samuel&rsquo,s name) and received a male child who selflessly served the Lord&rsquo,s people his entire life. Saul&rsquo,s name means &ldquo,asked for,&rdquo, but he was not given in grace, but rather in God&rsquo,s anger to teach His wayward people the ills of trusting a human ruler instead of Himself. Saul was a man after the flesh and His carnal reign caused the Jewish nation to yearn for a man of God to rule over them. The Lord had just such a man in mind, a faithful shepherd boy from Bethlehem. God&rsquo,s solution for what Israel needed was answered in the beloved, the meaning of David&rsquo,s name. Likewise, our solution to all life&rsquo,s difficulties is also found in God&rsquo,s Beloved &ndash, the Greater David, the Lord Jesus Christ.
