By Guerin Tueno What a disaster! King Saul has gone from being the golden boy of Israel to the John Elliot of the Old Testament. Saul’s reign was like a roller-coaster ride.

Trouble In The King's Household Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 3, 2004

What we’re looking at today is not pretty. Incest, rape, murder, political intrigue leading to a coup d’état, David running for his life. And again we wonder what to make of it all. Why is it in here? Well, there are a couple of reasons it’s in here. One is to show how quickly God’s judgement on ...read more
