The book of 1 Samuel records the transition from the dark days of the period of Israel's history when the Judges ruled to the beginning of the golden age of Israel's monarchy. The book begins with the birth and ministry of Samuel, Israel's last judge, followed by the disappointing reign of Saul, Israel's first king. As Saul fails in his duties as king, we witness the ascent of Israel's greatest king from serving as a shepherd over his father's flock to the threshold of the throne room of the nation. We are given a front row seat to witness the grace and providence of God as He brings David out of obscurity into the center of His plan to bring the Messiah into the world.
