Night Bible Study at Largs Bay Term 1, 2000
In a previous series (David
and Saul- NCTM Tuesday nights, 1998) the material
in 1Sam. 1- 2 Sam. 5:5 was covered. In that series we considered
the contrast between David, a man of covenant faith, and
Saul, a self-justifying contractual operator. This series
picks up from when David ascended to the kingship and will
follow through the outworking of God's covenant grace to
him. In so doing, we have in our minds echoing constantly
that Jesus is great David's greater Son and through the
Gospel he is acknowledged as the Son of David. So through
this series we will note also the ways in which the text
of 2 Samuel points us ahead to this coming Son, in whom
the covenant of God is focussed and realised.
