From 1 Samuel 17 - 20, David has been trying to find a way to serve his king and his country. Saul began by honoring and rewarding David’s service in killing Goliath and later leading battles against the Philistines. But Saul’s jealousy led him to fear and ultimately hate David. By the end of Ch.20, David has realized that he must go into exile.
