CEB 1 & 2 Samuel NOTES

A

one book until 16th century

Establishment of Kingship
internal failures
external threats (Philistines)
Samuel, Saul, David - God works through leaders/events(providence)

–Request for a king as sinful
–kingship as God’s gift to Israel

1) Samuel the Prophet; Eli’s corrupt family
Israel’s is in need of new leadership for a new future.

2) The story of Lord’s Covenant Chest
Israel needs new leaders, but the power for change comes from God.

3) Establishment of kingship and the choosing of Saul.
Samuel views this as sinful.
Saul’s story is one of promise and tragedy.

4) Rise of David
Traits that make him worthy to be God’s anointed king.
warrior, man of prayer, leader with wisdom and compassion.

5) David on the throne
David brings kingdom together and makes it stable
David brings the Lord’s covenant check to Jerusalem, giving it a place of honor.
Defeats Israel’s enemies
Loose tribal alliance to David’s firm leadership and infant royal state.

6) The court history of David.
David’s use of power - abuse of power (Bathsheba, Uriah, Nathan)
Marks the story in 2 parts
Blessing/Curse - Gift/Grasp
Rape, Murder, Exile, Rebellion, Civil War, Grief
David’s retreat to Jerusalem(trusts his future to God, depends on divine mercy)

7) Final Davidic Traditions

God’s sovereignty exceeds human sovereignty

God’s promise and direction - God’s willingness to look beyond human failures to find a future for Israel and its leadership.

Power doesn’t rise from the force of human personality alone. God acts to create a future for Israel.

God can initiate judge, renew, and empower but chooses to do so through human leaders and their gifts.

God’s providence will create the future.
