| Saul | -Israel's first king. From tribe of Benjamin.(I Sam
9). Before Saul was king, his family lost some sheep. He and
his servant had looked many day; then they decided to go to Samuel
("the seer") to find out what they should do. But God had
already told Samuel that he (Saul) was to be the king ahead of
time. Saul’s initial anointing is done in secret, after his servant is asked to make himself scarce (9:27-
10:1). Saul is then given several signs to encourage him and prove God is behind this. -When they were at war with the Philistines, Samuel instructed Saul to wait for him 7 days and he would come and they would offer up the offerings. Samuel was a little late, and Saul didn't wait, he went ahead and offered up the offerings on his own. Samuel told him because of his foolishness, his kingdom would not continue in his family. (1 Sam 13:5-15). In 1 Sam 14:24-52, Saul made his troops swear that they will not eat anything until the battle is over. This weakens the troops, Jonathan inadvertently breaks the oath, and eventually, in their hunger, the troops ravenously devour the spoil without properly bleeding the animals. When Saul finally attempts to seek God’s counsel again, at Ahijah’s suggestion (verse 36), God does not answer. Saul concludes that somebody must have sinned in the previous battle (as at Jericho/Ai) and asks God to reveal the culprit by lot. He is surprised to learn it was his own son—whom he then immediately condemns to death. But the people say that is going too far, and refuse to let him carry it out. Sons of Saul=Jonathan, Jishui, Malchishua. Daughters=Merab, Michal. Wife=Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz. Commander of the army=Abner, the son of Ner, Saul's uncle. Father=Kish. Kish and Ner (Abners father) were the son of Abiel. In the battle with the Amalekites, God instructed Saul to wipe them completely out, sparing nothing or noone. Instead, Saul captures and spares the king and keeps the best of their livestock to "offer as a burnt offering to God". God was upset with Saul and rejects him and instructs Saul to annoint David as next king over Israel.(1 Sam 15) |
