15 From the Book of 2 Samuel is: 2 Samuel 21
Why
was Saul's attempt to exterminate the Gibeonites wrong? How was David
careful not to make the same mistake? Do we stand by our word? Cf.
Ps. 15:4c.
- There was a law that those who were hanged were to be buried the same day. What was the reason for this law? Cf. Dt. 21:23. How does it explain the exception that is made here?
- What significance is there in the fact that giants troubled David right to the end of his life?
Note.
Verse 19. Cf. 1 Ch. 20:5 which seems to have preserved more
accurately the original text.
