Interesting to see how God is weaving His plan to have David replace Saul. Saul is becoming dependent on David the one chosen by God to replace Saul.

What do you make of this chapter? What do you think of my summary? How would you summarise it?

I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.

These are the summaries of the book of 1 Samuel.

They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
