Download or read book King Saul in the Historiography of Judah written by Diana Vikander Edelman and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1991-09-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sustained close reading of 1 Samuel 8 to 2 Samuel 1 from the perspective of the intended ancient audience. A conscious effort is made here to read and understand the text 'through the eyes of an ancient Israelite', to the extent that the world-view and idioms of late seventh-century Judah can be reconstructed. The study reveals a coherent, carefully developed narrative of Saul's career as the first king of Israel.

Book Synopsis The History of Saul, David and Solomon by : James Allen Moseley
Download or read book The History of Saul, David and Solomon written by James Allen Moseley and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-11-09 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories of Saul, David, and Solomon are inextricably entwined, but they are scattered in the Bible between the books of 1 and 2 Samuel, 1 and 2 Chronicles, and 1 and 2 Kings. This book tells you the full, true story of Israel's Greatest Kings in a single, uninterrupted narrative. Samuel, the righteous Judge and Prophet, anoints Saul, a Benjamite, the tallest of his countrymen, as Israel's first King. As Saul disobeys God and declines into madness, defeat, and suicide, David, the shepherd from Bethlehem, of the tribe of Judah, arises to kill the giant Goliath and become the King's son-in-law and rebel leader on the run. Finally, David becomes King of Judah and then King of Israel, and the House of Saul loses its royal standing. David is a man after God's own heart, but his deliberate sins - adultery and murder - result in bloodshed and civil war. His son, Solomon, secures the throne over the heads of his older brothers, and receives unparalleled wisdom, wealth, and power from God. He builds the First Temple, but then falls into apostasy. The story of these men covers the transition of Israel from a theocracy, ruled by Judges accountable directly to God, to a monarchy, with all the failings of men. If you are a believer, this book will enhance your devotions by helping you know the Biblical narrative more intimately. If you are a skeptic, its logic will challenge your doubts. Here you will discover facets of this era - surprising things in plain sight - in the ink on the pages of Scripture - but that many have overlooked.

Book Synopsis The David Story: A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel by : Robert Alter
Download or read book The David Story: A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel written by Robert Alter and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.
Download or read book King Saul written by Adam Green and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thorough re-examination of the First Book of Samuel and its treatment of Saul, showing that Saul's central role in the development of the kingdom of Israel has been misunderstood by generations of scholars. Spurred on by a childhood fascination with the Tanakh, which brought to his attention the discrepancy between the English rendering of Samuel 21:19 and the original Hebrew, Green builds upon recent research to show that later authors revised 1 Samuel with the specific intention of defamingSaul. In the process, these revisionist authors glorified the character of David, and have significantly distorted the true nature of events. Green systematically works through the Biblical text, highlighting its illogical chronology, and drawing attention to apocryphal incidents, before reconstructing a more plausible sequence for the story. Both a fresh analysis of a maligned figure and a comprehensive guide to the First Book of Samuel, Green's interpretation returns Saul to his rightful place as the first Lord's Anointed, true King and one genuine messiah of all Israel.

Book Synopsis Saul in Story and Tradition by : Carl S. Ehrlich
Download or read book Saul in Story and Tradition written by Carl S. Ehrlich and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2006 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The character of Saul and his place within the history, theology, and ideology of ancient Israel have fascinated interpreters for centuries. This book surveys the field of Saul studies. It includes in the first instance essays detailing Saul's place within the biblical narrative and its constituent parts (such as the Deuteronomistic History and the Chronicler's work). The possibility of identifying a Saulide period in the archaeological record is also discussed. A number of essays look at more specific themes and passages within the Saul cycle, such as his heroic nature, kingship, war, and literary balance. The final section of the book looks at the place of Saul within the post-biblical interpretative traditions, with essays devoted to Saul in the works of Josephus, in midrashic literature, in the Qur'an, in selected European literary texts, in the western artistic tradition, and in Handel's oratorio Saul.

Book Synopsis Saul, Benjamin, and the Emergence of Monarchy in Israel by : Joachim J. Krause
Download or read book Saul, Benjamin, and the Emergence of Monarchy in Israel written by Joachim J. Krause and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2020-09-18 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ponder questions of the united monarchy under Saul and David in light of current historical and archaeological evidence Reconstructing the emergence of the Israelite monarchy involves interpreting historical research, approaching questions of ancient state formation, synthesizing archaeological research from sites in the southern Levant, and reexamining the biblical traditions of the early monarchy embedded in the books of Samuel and Kings. Integrating these approaches allows for a nuanced and differentiated picture of one of the most crucial periods in the history of ancient Israel. Rather than attempting to harmonize archaeological data and biblical texts or to supplement the respective approach by integrating only a portion of data stemming from the other, both perspectives come into their own in this volume presenting the results of an interdisciplinary Tübingen–Tel Aviv Research Colloquium. Features: Essays on Israel's monarchy by experts in biblical archaeology and biblical studies Methods for integrating archaeology and biblical traditions in reconstructing ancient Israel's history New research on the sociopolitical process of state formation in Israel and Judah

C. 1070--1030.*] By the death of Saul, David was freed from the dangers which had surrounded him during several years, and the promise of his elevation to the throne of Israel appeared likely to be fulfilled without further delay. But David had learned that the Lord's time is the best time, and, among other profitable uses' of adversity, he was taught that his times were in the hands of the Lord. His first care, therefore, was to obtain the Divine direction; and in pursuance of this, he proceeded to Hebron with his family and followers, and there the men of Judah chose him for their king. He sent an intimation of their choice to the other tribes, but the jealousy between Ephraim and Judah kept them from joining their brethren. Abner, the captain of Saul's army, procured the only surviving son of Saul to be chosen as king over Israel, intending to govern in his name; as this prince, called Ishbosheth, was a weak and incapable person. Abner also would be the less disposed to support David, from having been personally concerned in Saul's proceedings against him. David continued in Hebron, unwilling to enter into warfare with his countrymen. It was a strong city, situated on a hill in the midst of a fertile district, and a spot consecrated by the sepulchres of Abraham and other patriarchs. One of David's earliest acts was to send to the men of Jabesh-gilead, commending their devotedness to Saul; thus showing that he retained no hatred towards his persecutor, and that attachment to their late monarch, though his enemy, would not prejudice him against any Israelites. The dates in this work are according to the chronology of Hales. After two years, Abner, and Joab who was the nephew of David, and his...
