I & II Samuel

I & II Samuel record the History of Israel as they struggle to have a king. While the Book of Judges shows life without a king, it is I Samuel that shows what happens when you get the wrong king like Saul. It is not until II Samuel that we see David as the true king over the nations. The historic books of I & II Samuel are filled with real life accounts of the people and places of a time when prophets and kings rule over Israel.
