The Rev. John Lukomski, co-host of Wrestling with the Basics on KFUO Radio, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study 2 Samuel 1. Find Wrestling with the Basics at https://www.kfuo.org/category/wrestling-with-the-basics/

2 Samuel opens with David’s reaction as he hears about the death of not only Saul, but also his close friend Jonathan. David mourns for Jonathan out of his love for him. He also mourns for King Saul out of his great respect for his office as the Lord’s anointed. David exercises judgment against an Amalekite who came to him with an interesting story to tell: that he was the one who dealt the final death blow against King Saul. 

2 Samuel tells how David becomes the king of Israel and faces both success and failure. It shows YHWH's faithfulness to His promise and David’s need for His mercy. Through this book, God reveals David in times of both strength and weakness, but nevertheless as a man after God’s heart.
