On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Jeremiah and Juan discuss the nature of kingship before introducing a lecture by Justin Jackson, professor of English at Hillsdale College.

First and Second Samuel tell the story of Saul and David, Israel’s first two kings. These Old Testament books depict the importance of the relationship between father and son and the consequences of sin for the sinner, his family, and his nation. While David’s transgressions lead to great tragedy for himself and Israel, his penitence shows a path toward redemption.

Although God has proven himself faithful to Israel by defeating her enemies, the people demand a king like other nations. Samuel anoints Saul, who must now discover the proper role of a king of Israel.
