DAVID WINS THE LORD’S BATTLE
David Wins The Lord’s Battle. This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
DAVID TRUSTS HIS FORMER DELIVERER
David Trusts His Former Deliverer. David said, “The LORD who rescued me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “Go, and may the LORD be with you.”
DAVID UNAWED BY THE GIANT
David Unawed By The Giant. Then David spoke to the men who were standing by him, “What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and removes the disgrace [of his taunting] from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he has taunted and defied the armies of the living God?”
DAVID AND GOLIATH
David and Goliath. Then a champion came out from the camp of the Philistines named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
He had a bronze helmet on his head, and wore a coat of scale-armor (overlapping metal plates) which weighed 5,000 shekels of bronze.
He had bronze shin protectors on his legs and a bronze javelin hung between his shoulders.
THE YOUNG HARPER BEFORE THE DEJECTED KING
The Young Harper Before The Dejected King. So Saul sent messengers to Jesse and said, “Send me David your son, who is with the flock.” Jesse took a donkey [loaded with] bread and a jug of wine and a young goat, and sent them to Saul with David his son.
DAVID ANOINTED KING
David Anointed King. The LORD said to Samuel, “How long will you grieve for Saul, when I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and go; I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have chosen a king for Myself among his sons.”
SHALLOW REPENTANCE UNAVAILING
Shallow Repentance Unavailing. “But the people took some of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the best of the things [that were] to be totally destroyed, to sacrifice to the LORD your God at Gilgal.”
VICTORY SHADOWED BY SAUL’S ERRORS
Victory Shadowed By Saul’s Errors. But the men of Israel were hard-pressed that day, because Saul had put the people under a curse, saying, “Cursed be the man who eats food before evening, and before I have taken vengeance on my enemies.” So none of the people ate any food.
JONATHAN DEFEATS THE PHILISTINES
Jonathan Defeats the Philistines. Then Jonathan climbed up on his hands and feet, his armor bearer following after him. The enemy fell before Jonathan [in combat], and his armor bearer killed some of them after him.
