Inhaltsangabe

David F. Payne's commentary explores the interplay of history, theology, and key figures in the drama of the books of Samuel.

The books of Samuel present a drama in which the principal players are the God of Israel, the prophet Samuel, and the first kings of Israel, Saul and David. In his masterful commentary David F. Payne shows that this Old Testament book combines history and theology as it narrates Samuel's virtues, Saul's defeats, and David's successes in relation to God's activities during an important phase in the life of Israel.

The Daily Study Bible series seamlessly continues the legacy of William Barclay's renowned New Testament series by delving into the texts of the Old Testament, weaving together ancient wisdom and modern insights for a transformative reading experience. Perfectly tailored for individual study, spirited group discussions, or classroom exploration, the Daily Study Bible series offers an indispensable resource for spiritual seekers and scholars alike. Within these volumes, readers will encounter a profound exploration of the Scriptures, uncovering the profound messages they held in the past and discerning their relevance in the present.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

G.S. Payne is an award-winning ghostwriter of over forty books. In his spare time, he has always found himself drawn to "the big questions" of life, and philosophy is his major avocation. "So Who is God, Anyway?: an UNorthodox Theory for Doubters, Skeptics, and Recovering Fundamentalists," is the culmination of more than 30 years of philosophical research into the questions of God's existence and God's nature.Payne lives on the Gulf Coast of Florida and when he's not writing or mulling the big questions, he can be found on his sailboat, Pilar, named after Ernest Hemingway's fishing boat. He also enjoys the cinema and traveling, and when engaged in the latter, he seeks out historic hotels (preferably haunted ones) and good Irish pubs. Of all the things he's most proud of, being a father and grandfather top the list.
