Reading for March 28th
Read 1 Samuel 22.6-10
In verse 7: The son of Jesse is a disparaging reference to David.
It was common for the King to reward his loyal servants.
David may have been making promises of rewards to his followers.
But Saul is saying that because they are not from Judah, David's tribe, the Benjaminites can expect no such rewards if David becomes king.
In verse 10: Chapter 21 does not mention that Ahimelech inquired of the Lord for (David), but this plays an important role in the confrontation to follow.
