## Resource

In our last episode, we covered the aftermath of King Saul’s death, including a scramble for power and position by Abner, the commander of Israel’s army. After losing a battle against David’s men, Abner fled on foot and was chased down by Asahel. Abner killed Asahel, but escaped to live another day. Today, Asahel’s brother Joab seeks revenge against Abner, but he does so without David’s approval. Later, two assassins cut off Ish-bosheth’s head and bring it to David. David is grieved by both incidents and he makes his grief and mourning public.
