Description
Meditations on 2 Samuel
David, the man after God`s heart, in 1 Samuel is anointed king but then persecuted. Now in 2 Samuel this same David ascends the throne, first of Judah, and then of all Israel. The theme of this book is the establishment in power of David, the king of grace - a striking picture of the Messiah at the beginning of his reign.
Yet in this book David is not only a picture of the Messiah, but he is also the responsible king to whom God has entrusted the rule of His people. In this respect he proves to be a failure. His fall, its terrible consequences, the discipline carried out upon him, his restoration, his confession, his sacrifice, and the new meeting place for the Lord and His people on Mount Moriah: all these are subjects before us here.
The much-honored and mighty King David was a fallible man. His experiences are replete with solemn instruction for us today. They also point forward to the experiences still ahead for the Jewish remnant during the Tribulation soon to come. Henri Rossier carefully brings out these various lines of truth in this volume newly translated from its original French.
