#115: 1 Samuel 26-28 | David commits genocide for the Philistines

David does it again: he sneaks into Saul's camp and does something amazing. This time he took Saul's spear and water jug while Saul was sleeping. (Last time he snuck in a cut off a piece of Saul's skirt while Saul was going to the bathroom.) After that, David worked as a mercenary for the Philistines, committing random acts of genocide for them. And the episode ends with Saul asking the witch of Endor to bring Samuel back to life. She does, and Samuel tells Saul that tomorrow the Philistines will kill him and his sons. The text and notes for this episode can be found here.
