man sleeping on his hand
======================================
1 Samuel 8:7
And the LORD said to Samuel, "Obey the voice of the people in all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me from being king over them.
1 Samuel 10:25-27
Then Samuel told the people the rights and duties of the kingship, and he wrote them in a book and laid it up before the LORD. Then Samuel sent all the people away, each one to his home. Saul also went to his home at Gibeah, and with him went men of valor whose hearts God had touched. But some worthless fellows said, "How can this man save us?" And they despised him and brought him no present. But he held his peace.
continual rejection
punctuated repentance
moves them
from prophesying deliverer
to delivering king,
but human kings
have flaws.
foolish willfulness
charges—
will charge—
a very high price.
1 Samuel 7:15-10:27
