We again turn to the story of David. Last meeting with David made us a very favorable impression. We attended his inauguration as the new king, rejoicing together with Judah, and later all Israel. We admired and retold each other amazing stories about his military victories, the conquest of Jerusalem and the incredible expansion of Israel’s borders. It was especially nice to hear that David finally pacified the Philistines, having finished the job started by Samson.
We are pleased with the attitude of David to worship in the temple, his desire to serve God and serve Him in the center of life in Israel. We are impressed by the touching scene of forgiving Mephibosheth, when David showed generosity to the fullest. Reflecting on this, we are anticipating new blessings to be poured out upon the nations through David, especially now, when the Lord had given him rest from all enemies.
