In Part 9 of his series on I & II Samuel, Rabbi Schiller looks at how David spared Saul’s life, and how we, too, can forgive our enemies through the power of the Gospel, which gives us both the humility to know that we, too, are sinners, and the affirmation that we are beloved in the LORD and therefore can overcome hurts inflicted by others.

In Part 8 of his series on I & II Samuel, Rabbi Schiller looks at the theme of friendship as modeled by David & Jonathan, featuring constancy, openness, loyalty, and common passion, and how Y’Shua is the ultimate friend, enabling us to be a godly friend when we’re transformed through a covenant relationship with Him.

In Part 7 of his series on Samuel, Rabbi Schiller looks at Saul’s envy of David and how we can be freed from slavery to envy and jealousy by having the same attitude towards others that Y’Shua has toward us, by putting our happiness into the happiness of others.

In Part 10 of his series on I & II Samuel, Rabbi Schiller looks at the account of David taking the Ark to Jerusalem, and we see here a picture of the Gospel, both with God’s judgment when we try to do things our own way, as with Uzzah, and God’s provision through the Mercy Seat on top of the Ark.

In Part 6 of his series on the Book of Samuel, Rabbi Schiller looks at the relationship of David & Jonathan, some keys to true friendship, and how Jonathan looked beyond David to the ultimate Son of David, David’s Son who became David’s LORD.

In Part 4 of his series on Samuel, Rabbi Schiller looks at the Calling of David to be King, where God bypasses his 7 older brothers, for God does not look upon the outward appearance as man does, but the LORD looks upon the heart.

In Part 3 of his series on I & II Samuel, Rabbi Schiller looks at the story of Saul and the Amalekites and Samuel removing the kingship from Saul for his disobedience, and we look at how in our own life we can resist self-deception only if we fully acknowledge the LORD as our King.
