word of the lord is tried he is a buckler to i all them that trust in him the lesson as a whole approach to the lesson the reign of david was in strik ing contrast to he rein of saul his predecessor saul began his kingship on a tidal wave of enthus iasm and optimism and aiart from a few worthl sam 1027 with the millo is rendered citadel in the septuaglnt the entire hill thus be came a stronghold verse 10 and david went on and grew great and the lord god of hosts was with hint the phrase went on and grew great is a hebraism ror grew greater and greater the secret was of course that the lord was with him chap s 13 and david got itim a name from smiting of fellows lthe syrians xo wonder for the unanimous syrians were the miglitv nation of business directory support of a unified nation david that day it was a complete sub- on the other hand came to the juration see verse 6 throne in a day of disillusion and verse 1 1 and he put garrisons disappointment and frustration in edom and the lord pre- the philistines whom saul should served david this region have crushed beyond recovery were exulting in a great victory over israel in which their king and three of his sons had fallen the army was dispersed and morale was at a low ebb in addi tion the nation as a whole did not rally to him and it was only after a hard struggle of seven and a half years that he sat securely on the throne of all israel nevertheless from the near wreck which he inherited from the hands of the rejected saul david built a strong united nation well administered by capable men he thoroughly crushed the enemy within their own borders and extended the dominion of israel north east and south till there ixegeb has figured in very recent history david thus secured his southern border verse 15 david executed judg ment and justice unto all his peopie in peace as in war david proved his skill and he was as zealous in the exercise of justice as in the prosecution of conquests apparently absaloms charges were not well founded chap 133 i verse 10 and joab was over the host and jehoshaphat recorder joab maintained his position throughout davids reign after his seizure of zion record er means remembrancer he probably was the oiticial historian verse 17 zadok and was none to challenge his sway ahimelech two high priests were he established a strong capital not strictly legal zadok was at centralized the worship of thejgibeori and ahimelech at jerusa- people and encouraged true piety item xote the syriac reads throughout the land true his abiathar son of ahimelech and reign was not without its tragedies but he passed on to the hands of his son solomon a kingdom united and extensive the peace and magnificence of solomons reign must be attributed in large meas ure to david the son reaped what his father had sown this contrast between saul and david is traceable to one basic difference saul for all his pretense to obedience did not have his heart right with the lord but sought his own honor 1 sam 1530 david for all his faults and sins was a lover of god a man i within who humbly accepted the rebukes of the lord deeply repented and set the lord always before him as a result saul went deeper and deeper into sin and dismally failed while david although reaping much bitter fruit of his sins triumphed over them and led his people from victory to victory keep thy heart with all diligence for out of it are the issues of life prov 423 verse by verse 2 sam 5 6 except thou take away the blind and the lame thou shalt not come in hither the jebusitas reckoned their strong hold so impregnable that blind and lame men could hold it against any comerthis was really a taunt to david being their way of defying him verse 7 nevertheless david took the strong hold of zion the impregnability of the place and the boast of the jebusites were no dis couragement to david his general ship and the prowess of his mighty men were equal to any situation verse s whosoever getteth up to the gutter shall be chief and captain it is thought that a sub terranean passage is here referred to as the only approach to the fortress and such a passage was discovered by sir charles warren joab undertook the mission and was restored to the command which he apparently had lost as a result of his murder of aibner 1 chron 11 g verse 0 so david dwelt in the fort and built round about from millo establishing zion as his capital he needed buildings to house his officers and so forth travel relaxed and carefree it was abiathar who came to david in the cave after his father ahime lech was slain at sauls command 1 sam 222023 verse is and benaiah was over both the cherethites and the pelethites two small tribes from philistine territory who formed the kings bodyguard benaiah became commander of the army when solomon came to the throne the heart of the lesson being king of israel was no easy task there were enemies the borders of their land whom the tribes had failed to subdue or drive out and these were constant pricks and thorns not only hindering the develop ment of the nation but at times gaining the ascendency and oppressing the israelites the very citadel which david chose as capital was in the hands of the jebusites who boasted of their unshakable possession of it we too have inward foes who hold the very citadel of our being the will until our mighty david wrests it from their grasp read romans 7 1525 then there were foes beyond the borders of israel jealous of the rising power of david and seeking occasion to halt his progress moab syria and edom amnion and amalek all had to be subjugated there was no living amicably with these nations bent on the destruc tion of gods people so we have foes without the powers of dark ness rage against all who name the name of christ and there can be no truce it we would win new territory for our lord it will be on tlie field of battle not around a conference table kingship also called for adminis tration so we read of davids organization of the kingdom he himself held the ministry of justice but chose men of proved worth to share with him the responsibilities of state in its various branches we remember that there are diverse offices in the church and the apostle paul reminds us that every member of the body has an assign ed task appropriate to his gift read 1 corinthians chapters 12 and 13 but a king is also a man and he is most kingly when he is best per forming his duties as a man among men david did not allow the burdens of kingship to crowd out the finer qualities of pity and gen erosity he remembered the lovely friendship of jonathan and he sought out the sole surviving son of his friend to do him kindness for his fathers sake the story of davids dealings with mephibos- heth chap 9 constitutes a lovely interlude in a life so full of public activity if only we studied to show the kindness of god to needy men many a bitter heart might be opened for the reception of the gospel the thing that made the late king george vi of britain so beloved was his personal touch with the people and his kindnesses so freely bestowed especially dur ing the nations dark days rennies
