115 | Gibeonite vengeance (2 Samuel 21)

We're looking at events that took place during King David's reign over Israel, probably somewhere in the middle to later part of his rule—we're talking roughly 1000 to 970 BCE. By this point, David had consolidated his power, survived multiple rebellions, and was dealing with the long-term consequences of decisions made not just by himself, but by his predecessor, King Saul. The ancient Near East during this period? It was a world where blood debts, tribal obligations, and covenant relationships weren't just cultural norms—they were matters of life and death that could affect entire nations.Source:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1de6iYIBs0cCSgEkSAXzilJcKIzD9hOwI/view?usp=sharing
