Pastor Lloyd highlights the contrast between David and Abner and the divided kingdoms in this chapter. David seeks the Lord and is anointed over Judah, leading with dependence on God. In contrast, Abner, Saul’s cousin and commander, sets up Ishbosheth over Israel, acting from human ambition to preserve Saul’s line. The result is two kingdoms: David’s, growing in strength under God’s direction, and Saul’s, sustained by human effort and marked by division.
