1020 BC: David in the Court of Saul and the Season of Contradicton

After David marries Michal, Saul only gets more jealous of David. He orders his son Jonathan and his attendants to kill David. David flees from Saul, but Jonathan takes up his case with Saul and David is restored to his place. All seems back to normal in the court of Saul, until the Philistines attack and David defeats them and David is Israel's hero again. In a fit of rage, as David was playing his lyre for Saul, Saul hurls his spear at David. David dodges the spear and flees to his room. Saul orders David to be killed, but David escapes out of the window out of the palace of Saul and the protection of Israel into his wilderness years. We conclude this episode with a look at the concept of Christian contradictions and the upside down Kingdom of Jesus.
