Zusammenfassung:1 and 2 Samuel constitute some of the finest historical writing in all of literature. Written largely as historical biography, these narratives offer commentary on formative events in the history of Ancient Israel. The moral and spiritual repercussions of these events, and of the persons involved, are highlighted. They are also important from a prophetic viewpoint, in that they tell of the founding of Israel’s Kingdom under David. These events foreshadow the coming of Israel’s true King and the establishment of the Kingdom under the Messiah. The kings Saul and David, and the teachings of the lives and witness of the prophets Elijah and Elisha, still raise many questions and rich symbolic allusion. This book re-considers some of these, and uncovers new perspectives on the themes arising from the crucial contribution of the Books of Samuel and Kings to both the Bible and wider Christian thought
