We round out the book of 1 Samuel by reading about David's band's home base of Ziklag (located in Philistia) being destroyed and all their possessions and families being taken by unforeseen enemies. They mount a swift recovery mission and kill everyone (except 400 guys on camels, apparently?!).

Meanwhile, Saul and his sons are fighting with the Philistines on some mountain slopes and they are defeated. Serves them right for ignoring God's warning, but whatever. Now Saul is dead, but David doesn't know.

What do you think? Did we miss anything? Let us know!
