And yet silenchas its terrible aspect, its ap- pal:Mg significance. Saul had sinned and played the fool exceeding. He had used his pow- er to further his ambitions rather than to hen) his people; he had put aside Clod's commands in the pur- suit of Ws own selfish ends. Samuel was dead and the dreaded Philistines were upon hint. What was he to do in the emergeney? How was he to. rneet this sudden danger? What did the future hold? The affrighted king remembered the habits of iiis youth. In his extremity he turned to God. Not in contrition, but in the pride of kis conceit.
