—★—

SAUL'S rashness, weakness, failure, and rejection, and his consequent ever downward course, the choosing of David, and his checkered but ever-rising career, with many interesting incidents throwing much light upon the habits and customs of the people, the influence of surrounding nations upon them, and the wonderful workings of God's providence in shaping and molding national events, are strong features in the narrative of this week's readings. God was still remembering the promised Seed. We have a noble lesson of unselfish friendship in Jonathan, and of mercy and magnanimity in David toward Saul his enemy. It is safe to leave our cause in God's hand. Yet how sincerely David mourned him!
