In our most recent episode, we followed David through his encounter with Ahimelech, into the Philistine country of Gath, and into the caves of Adullam. God saw David through each step of the way, providing for him and keeping him safe from the hand of Saul. David began to gather a following of other outcasts and those who were hurting and needed hope – a presage of what Christ would one day do, not just for Israel but all the earth. Saul, who was blinded to all reason by his hateful desire to kill David, continued to hunt him down and even slaughtered priests and their families who he believed had betrayed him when they helped David. Today we’ll continue to see Saul, seething with anger pursue David. But even when given the chance to harm Saul, David shows the pureness of his heart and the tenderness he has toward his enemy.
