Summary
In today’s readings, we’ll cover some of David’s military exploits. As he and his forces are victorious over their enemies, the reader is to understand that the Lord is with him in battle. The narrative thus far has established that David prioritizes the right worship of God. Much like the gospel accounts, we’ll read parallel narratives when we read portions from 2 Samuel and from 1 Chronicles, so don’t be alarmed or feel like you’re experiencing déjà vu. One section that’s unique to 2 Samuel is a recording of David’s kindness to a handicapped man named Mephibosheth; he was last remaining relative of Saul’s family, the son of his friend Jonathan.
