people of Israel if we did not believe that they were very profoundly

A WISE WOMAN'S PLEA

What a contrast between the sordid Nabal and his beautiful wife-as

We now have the account of Samuel's death. Notwithstanding all
Israel's failure to realize his high ideals, it was impossible that
they should not recognize his greatness, and it is easy to believe

We enter now on a portion of David's history sensibly different from
what we have already had, which closed with the efforts of Jonathan to
restore matters and to attach Saul to him at least openly. J...

At length Samuel dies. This forms an epoch, because he who was the
true link between the people and God was gone. Israel acknowledged him
when dead, although they had despised him while living.

David's moral victory over Saul and over his own natural instincts has
been most admirable. However, in this chapter we see him showing just
the opposite attitude. It seems hardly possible that this c...
