Samuels Spirit

Notice the Lord did not answer Saul so what does he do? Goes to a witch. Don’t we all really do the same thing in a way? When God does not answer, we quickly go and do our own thing instead of waiting on God. Saul knew he was wrong for doing so and that’s why he concealed himself. When he has Samuels spirit brought back, it is more of an "I told you so" conversation then anything else. Then instead of being captured he decided to kill himself with his own sword. Then ---gross--- the Philistines be-head him and nail him to the wall along with his sons.

I have to say, Jabesh taking the bodies down and burning then was a very brave thing to do considering where he was and then he brought them to David. I am still a little confused on why he decided to kill Jabesh. I sort of understand. Saul was the King that killed. Anyway, David put aside all of Saul's flaws and while mourning celebrated Saul's strengths. Very Cool!
