Who should lead us? Who should we, as a community, look to for
guidance? These questions, as old as humankind, followed the
Israelite community upon their return from the Exile: Should they
return with Davidic kingship or without it? Their answer was King
Saul. Reading Israel's first king as a riddle or the epitome of
Israel's experience with kingship, King Saul's Asking explores the
characterization of the figure Saul, the question of the apparent
silence of God, the multiple complexities of responsibility for
kingship, and the readers'opportunities for transformation. It
provides a new approach to the Old Testament, supplying the reader
with not only an in-depth character study but also an interesting,
insightful read, and opportunity for transformation. Chapters are
"Asking a Child (1 Samuel 1-3)," "Seeking a Refuge (1 Samuel 4-7),"
"Request for a King (1 Samuel 8-12)," "Obedience Wanted, Wanting (1
Samuel 13-15)" "Suspecting the Dreaded (1 Samuel 16-19)" "Futile
Searching (1 Samuel 20-23)," "Sensing the Silent (1 Samuel 24-26),"
and "Final Questions." Receive From Earth's Creation to John's
