The Rev. Dr. Michael Morehouse, pastor of Catalina Lutheran Church in Tucson, AZ, and Vicar Gabriel Strawn join the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to Study 1 Samuel 1:1-2:11.
The Book of 1 Samuel opens with the unique birth of Samuel, a prophet and the last judge of Israel. We meet Hannah, a woman unable to have children, who pleads with God to give her a child. In return, she promises to dedicate her son to the Lord’s service. God answers the barren woman’s prayers and Samuel is born. True to her word, Hannah leaves her son to serve under Eli, the chief priest at Shiloh.
The Book of 1 Samuel beings with the unique birth of Samuel, the last judge of Israel. Soon, the people of Israel begin to press upon the aging prophet Samuel to anoint a king over them like the other nations. YHWH assures Samuel that the people are rejecting their God, not Samuel. He advises Samuel to give the people what they want. What follows is the rise and fall of King Saul, the eventual anointing and coronation of David as king, the forerunner of Jesus. It’s a true story of political intrigue and warfare, but it’s also more than that. 1 Samuel shows us God working to save his people from their enemies and even from themselves.
