June 21, 2024 – 1 Samuel 18:17-19

I am not sure I understand the deception I read about in this passage. I also know that I do not have to understand the deception. I simply need to let my yes be yes and my no be no. I do not want to engage in deception with anyone. May you avoid deception as well.

 

17 Then Saul said to David, “Here is my elder daughter Merab. I will give her to you for a wife. Only be valiant for me and fight the Lord's battles.” For Saul thought, “Let not my hand be against him, but let the hand of the Philistines be against him.” 18 And David said to Saul, “Who am I, and who are my relatives, my father's clan in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?” 19 But at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, she was given to Adriel the Meholathite for a wife.
