More than half of the first book of Samuel and the beginning of the second narrate how and why kingship in Israel was transferred from Saul to David and his house. Raoul Baziomo investigates the roles played by Saul's children and sheds fresh light on the narrative of the conflict opposing Saul to David and in so doing further highlights the message it conveys and the system of values it promotes.
