Book of Samuel
The two books that are titled I and II Samuel are fascinating scriptures. We find the Nation of Israel entering I Samuel at a Spiritual low point in their history. Scripture states that it was a time where, "Everyone did right in their own eyes". They have spent roughly 300 years living along side the pagan nations in the land of Canaan. The Israelites have allowed themselves to be influenced by the world rather than influencing the world themselves. God raises up the Prophet Samuel to not only lead them out of this spiritual low-point but also appoint the Nations 1st King (Saul) and ultimately the King that God chose (David). We hope you enjoy our verse-by-verse study through these pivotal scriptures.
