Publisher's Synopsis
The First Book of Samuel is a religious text written by A.F. Kirkpatrick. It is a part of the Old Testament and is considered to be one of the historical books. The book is named after Samuel, who was a prophet and judge in Israel during the 11th century BCE. The book is divided into two parts: the first part tells the story of Samuel's birth and rise to power, and the second part focuses on the reign of King Saul, the first king of Israel. The book covers important events such as the anointing of Saul as king, the defeat of the Philistines, and the rise of David, who would eventually become the next king of Israel. The First Book of Samuel is an important religious text for Christians and Jews alike, as it provides insight into the history and culture of ancient Israel and the role of prophets and kings in the development of the nation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
