King
Saul is in hot pursuit of David who
is hiding in a cave. When the King
walks into the cave, David has the
opportunity to kill the man who is
trying to kill him.
Instead,
David secretly cuts off a piece of
the King’s cloak.
Shortly afterwards
David confronts the King from a high
rock and begs King Saul to stop chasing
after him.

Saul
is completely taken by surprise by
this turn of events; he cancels the
chase and invites David to join him
on his way back to the palace.
Instead, David
goes to King Boran, an enemy King,
for help. David reluctantly agrees
to fight with Boran against King Saul
and Jonathan, David’s friend.
|
Meanwhile,
Saul seeks advice from a spiritualist
‘the Witch of Endor’, who predicts
Saul’s death on the battlefield.
Saul
and Jonathan are both killed the following
day in battle and shortly afterwards
David is crowned King.
