Dovid and Shaul: guides and misguided humility
The intriguing topic of "comparative analysis of kingship: David, Shoal and Prophet Amos" offers a deep dive into the contrasting characteristics and roles of these significant biblical figures. Rabbi Wilhelm, in his insightful analysis, emphasizes the importance of inner qualities over external attributes in the selection of a king. He highlights how Shoal's physical stature was a key factor in his selection as king, while David, despite his humble beginnings and unconventional appearance, was chosen for his inner qualities. Rabbi Wilhelm also draws parallels between David and Moses, suggesting that both were chosen for their inner qualities rather than their external appearance. This perspective is shaped by Rabbi Wilhelm's deep understanding and study of biblical texts.
