Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley talk about all of the death and drama in 2 Samuel chapters 3 through 5.
Questions Covered in This Episode:
- In the last discussion of 2 Samuel we looked at the fading of Saul’s kingship and the emergence of the Davidic kingship, but 2 Samuel 3:1 captures that even clearer doesn’t it?
- Who is Abner in 2 Samuel and why does he matter?
- Let’s talk about 2 Samuel 3:14.
- Then the murders start happening: Abner is murdered, then Ish-bosheth (Saul’s son)...why does this matter? Why is God ok with all this bloodshed?
- In 2 Samuel 5 we have David anointed king of Israel, but hadn’t he already been anointed?
- The defeat of the Philistines...why is it important that Israel fight and defeat people like the Philistines?
