1 Samuel 17
1 SamuelSteve Gregg
In this segment, Steve Gregg shares insights on the biblical story of David and Goliath. He notes that the anointing of David took place prior to the famous battle and suggests that the question of Goliath's ancestry raised in the text is left unanswered. Gregg also comments on the height of Goliath and the contest between him and the armies of Israel. He questions Saul's courage and examines the relationship between David and his father Jesse, speculating on why Jesse did not call upon his other sons to fight in the battle.
