- What would you say is God's philosophy on taking risks?
Let's read Chapter 13 and discuss along the way...
- v.1 Why did he wait a year to become king?
- Why are the Israelites always fighting the Philistines?
- v.13 What is the code of conduct that Saul has violated? Why is it a big deal? See Deut.20.
- v.14 What is God's main complaint about Saul?
- v.19-23 Why are the Israelites having their enemies sharpen their tools? Why are they fighting with farming tools?
Chapter 14
- v.1 Why is Saul hiding? Have we seen him hiding before?
- v.6-23 What exactly happened here? Why do you think Jonathan did this? Highlight the key quote that reveals just how differently Jonathan thinks compared to his dad.
- v.24 What is Saul's motive in giving such a command? (Why is he mad?)
- v.43-46 Contrast Saul's perspective vs. God's perspective on this situation.
- v.52 What does this show about where Saul's confidence lies?
