The Expositor’s Bible: 1 Samuel

Stirring! The Expositor’s Bible: The First Book of Samuel by Blaikie spans the transition between the rule of the Judges and that of Israel’s Kings. Samuel directed the nation as it changed from a republic to a monarchy and from a rather casual and indefinite superintendence to one of more systematic and orderly government. Through this careful record of the theological significance of the kingship in Israel Blaikie teaches spiritual lessons to the readers of all time, highlighting the cause and effects of various human responses to God’s grace. Enlightening!
