| From this major disobedience forward we see Saul’s life spiraling into other sinful behavior, such as lying to Samuel about his disobedience, attempting to justify it, blaming his soldiers for his disobedience, and self worship at a monument set up in his honor in Carmel. (Chapter 15) The remainder of Saul’s life seems to be a struggle with an insane jealousy of his successor to the throne. Not only is David the Lord’s anointed choice for king; he is also the people’s choice, especially among the women. (Chapter 18) Saul is determined to kill David or have him killed, but is unable to do so because of the Lord’s anointing on David. Finally, when Saul is wounded in a battle with the Philistines, he ends his own life by falling on his sword. This is truly a sad ending for a man chosen by God to be king.
