Beyond David & Goliath: The REAL Story in 1 Samuel 15-17

Join host Christopher Enoch for a scholarly deep dive into 1 Samuel chapters 15-17. We'll move beyond the familiar story of David and Goliath to explore the complex layers of the original text.

In this in-depth livestream, we will analyze:

King Saul's Rejection (1 Sam 15): What was the true nature of Saul's sin? We'll examine the historical and cultural context of the command to destroy the Amalekites and its theological implications.

David's Anointing (1 Sam 16): Explore the significance of Samuel's choice of David, the "man after God's own heart," and what this meant in its ancient Near Eastern setting.

David vs. Goliath (1 Sam 17): Discover details often missed in the classic story. We will discuss key manuscript variations (comparing the Masoretic Text and the Septuagint) and how they drastically change the narrative and its meaning.

Theological Significance: Christopher Enoch will tie these chapters together to discuss their overarching message about kingship, obedience, and divine providence.

This study is for anyone seeking to understand the Bible in its original context, free from modern interpretive biases.
