First and Second Samuel

Samuel, the last of the judges, wrote his first book linking the judges and the monarchy. In it he called the people to a revival of the true worship of Yahweh their God. He was also chosen by God to anoint both Saul and David as kings of Israel. This self-study guide will help you to take a closer look through the eyes of this great Old Testament saint as he records the important events during the reigns of both kings.
