1 Samuel 10

Theme of chapter: Saul is anointed king by Samuel and presented to the people of Israel as the king that wanted as they turned their backs on God.

Most important verse: 1 Samuel 10:19 And ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and ye have said unto him, Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.

Most prominent word: psaltery (water jar; jug; pot)

Teaching about Christ: Christ forgives all the sins of his children.

Command to obey: Don't let past sins affect how you live your life now, or what you can accomplish now.

Promise to claim: God can turn something meant for evil to something good.

New truth learned: Israel is getting their wish now, Saul is presented as their king.
