man seeth for man looketh on the outward appear ance but the lord looketh oo the heart 1 sam 167 the lesson as a whole approach to the lesson this lesson reveals the mental and spiritual decline of kins saul and the introduction and growing popularity of david one fact serves as a background to the entire series of events god had declared to saul thro ugh the lips of samuel that he was rejected as king of israel and that the kingdom would be given to a neighbour of thine that is better than thou 1 sam 1528 this declaration preyed on sauls distraught selfcentered verse 16 but all israel and judah loved david because he j went out and came in before them the increasing popular ity of the young man was due 1 to his worthy character and 2 to the fact that in the per- 1 formance of his military duties j his virtues were on puolic dis play outline of the lesson 1 davids anointing and promo tion 1 sam 16 2 davids triumph over goliath chap 17 3 david both loved and feared chap 181161 the heart of the lesson saul and jonathan were la ther and son they had the same lineage and background yet saul feared david and sought to destroy him while jonathan loved him as his own soul 1 1 sam 181 how can these con trasting reactions be explained david was loval and obedient and jealous mind when he be- i to saul he played the harp at held young davids physical beauty ability to attract men and elicit their loyalty his phy sical courage and mounting pop ularity the ruler went into a royal frenzy of frustration but the same declaration had the opposite effect on davids career he was the neighbour who would receive the kingdom god made a promise 1 sam 15 28 david was chosen and an ointed chap 1613 it was then simply a matter of time before saul would be eliminated and david would mount the throne saul might chafe at the bit and paw the earth with fury but the purposes of the lord would be inexorably fulfilled verse by verse 1 sam 185 david went out whithersoever saul sent him behaved himself wisely saul set him over the men of war he was accepted in the sight of all the people da vids obedience and exemplary conduct were rewarded his pro motion to a position of military leadership was popularly and universally acclaimed verse 6 when david was returned from the slaugh ter of the philistine the women came out singing and dancing to meet king saul the occasion of this musical cel ebration was probably the close of the campaign against the philistines of which the slaying i against the philistines he utter- of goliath was the turning ed his declaration of faith point such dances were not un- i there is no restraint to the common david himself when lor to save by many or by king danced joyously at the i lew his entire trust was in return of the ark of the lord to god when david faced goliath the royal command he insti tuted no revolt when saul tried to smite him with the javelin he accepted his military demo tion v 13 without complaint in all things he behaved himself wisely yet saul although at first loving david chap 1621 soon became envious and suspi cious of him on the other hand jonathan who might with some reason have been jealous of david as of a young man who could de prive him some day of the throne was drawn to him by a wonderful love he made a cov enant with the shepherd boy and presented him with his choicest gifts chap 183 4 later in lamenting jonathans death david sang thy love to me was wonderful passing the love of women 2 sam 1 26 the reason for the contrast is clear david and jonathan were knit together in a bond concern ing which saul seemed to know nothing was it the bond of youth to some extent perhaps was it the bond of courage both young men were very brave but so was king saul no the cementing bond was the common reliance of david and jonathan upon their god saul put his confidence in valiant men but notice the conduct of jonathan and david when jonathan went out beauty salons the powder puff beauty

and typewriters at the tribune his city 2 sam 61214 verse 7 the women an swered as they played saul hath slain his thousands and david his ten thousands this lilting chorus put to a popular refrain was heard a- cross the land as women from city after city jubilantly echoed it the singers were presum ably expressing their joy over the victory rather than gloating in a comparison derogatory to saul verse 8 saul was very wroth he said they have ascribed unto david ten thou sands to me but thou sands what can he have more but the kingdom sauls anger was not the result only of envy or petulance before his eyes he was seeing the begin ning of the fulfillment of sam uels prophecy 1 sam 1528 could this new popular hero be the king who would replace him verse 9 and saul eyed da vid from that day and forward envy suspicion and fear now marked the kings attitude to ward the young man whom he began to regard as his rival for the throne verse 10 the evil spirit from god came upon saul he prophesied david played as at other times there was a javelin in sauls hand god occasionally per mits evil spirits to do their dev astating work see job 112 26 7 a spirit contributed to sauls mental derangement the prophesying was the utter ance of strange and doubtless incoherent thoughts under the influence of the wicked spirit verse 11 saul cast the javelin he said i will smite david to the wall david avoided twice david young and agile escaped the spear thrust of the madden ed king the rulers mental ten sion had reached such an ad vanced stage that the harp chords no longer brought him relief but rather infuriated him verse 12 saul was airaid of david because the lord was with him and was de parted from saul this was tho crux of the matter see 1 sam 1613 14 the secret of sauls mental temperamental and moral decline and of davids rise in popular esteem was the relation of each to the spirit of the lord verse 13 therefore saul re moved him from him made him his captain over a thousand the king did not dare to eliminate his young aide whom in his heart he could not but admire he demoted him instead see 1 sam 185 verse 14 david behav ed himself wisely in all his ways and the lord was with him to behave oneself is to act or conduct oneself the reason da vid acted thus was the presence and help of god this verse re veals an interesting facet of davids character he could con tinue his wise conduct even when demoted verse 15 when saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely he wasttfrald of him davids acceptance of his military rebuke increased sauls fear why because only one who was obviously led of the spirit could act so humbly and wisely saul therefore concluded that david must indeed be ap proved of god as his successor to the throne he voiced the same a i come to thee in the name of the lord of hosts the gou ut the armies of israel chap 1745 the young men were knit together by the ties of their loyalty to and dependence upon god the spirit of the lord came upon david chap 1613 but the spirit of the lord de parted from saul v 14 no wonder the king feared david while his son jonathan who shared davids trust in the lord was strangely drawn to him to be permanent love for ones fellow man must be rooted in love for god and one can never really know the love of god until he has put his death less trust in gods son here are just a few of our many rdware
