Overview
While 1 Samuel recounts “eventful history interwoven
with the biographies of three colourful personalities,
2 Samuel describes the period of David’s reign over
Israel. The book of 2 Samuel continues to show us the
virtue of humility, the destructiveness of pride, and the
faithfulness of God’s promise. We see David succeed
and fail, and we see God’s promise for a future king at
the beginning and end of the story.
