Summary

King Saul was chosen to lead the Israelites. When Saul led the Israelites into battle against the Philistines, he became frightened and disobeyed God. King Saul viewed himself as the ultimate authority in Israel, and this upset God. Samuel, one of God’s judges, tried to help Saul and the Israelites, but Saul still didn’t listen. Because he disobeyed God and forgot that God is the one true King, Saul had to face consequences and his time as king came to an end.
