The façade of religious faithfulness fades in these chapters as Saul’s personality takes a turn for the worse. He fears losing power to David. He has continued to disobey God, and now he becomes unable to hide the deterioration of his behavior. For the rest of this story, through the end of 1 Samuel, we’ll watch what happens when someone is welded to power and divorced from submission to God.
