LIfe of David-Fugitive Years Wk 4

David Marries Michal                1 Samuel 18:19-30 
•         Merab…should have been given to David-David Could Not Be Persuaded
•         Merab…was given unto Adriel-A Large Dowry Was Probably Offered to Saul in Return
•         And Michal Saul’s daughter loved David-A Good Thing to Be Used by Saul for Evil
•         The thing pleased him-Literally, It Was Straight in His Eyes
•         She may be a snare (moqes) to him-Snare Describes the Dangers of Idols & Idol Worship
•         Michal Could Be a Snare in Two Ways:
•         Motivate David to Place His Life at Risk in Battle With the Philistines
•         Corrupt David Spiritually (19:13 image=Teraphim)
•         Saul said to David-Not in Person
•         Commune with David secretly-Lie for Me
•         Be the king’s son in law-David Interpreted This to Mean Saul Was Willing to Overlook Family Background
•         Seemeth it to you a light thing-Rubbing Salt in the Wound
•         I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed-David Refuses a Second Time
•         Desireth not any dowry-Third Offer, Honorable Means of Overcoming David’s Genealogy Shortcoming
•         Avenged of the king’s enemies-Patriotic Duty
•         It pleased David well to be the king’s son in law-Why?
•         Great Honor
•         Marriage Would Repair Relationship with Saul
•         Wanted to Serve Saul Faithfully
•         The days were not expired-Time Limit for the Added Deed
•         Two hundren men-Twice as many as requested
•         Gave them in full tale-Filled up a Container
•         Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife-No Choice; Confirmed by Public Knowledge
•         Saul saw and knew…LORD was with David-Eyewitness & Soul Witness
•         Michal…loved him-And Would Protect Her Husband
•         Saul was yet the more afraid-David Now A Legitimate Contender for the Throne
•         Saul became David’s enemy continually-He Remained His Enemy the Rest of His Days
•         Philistines went forth-A New War As A Result of David’s Raid
•         David behaved himself more wisely-More Successful & Skillful Than Other Officers
•         Name was much set by-Precious or Highly Acclaimed
