The Bible OverBrew - Bible in a Year

DAY 81 OF 365

Week 12. Day 4. 1 Samuel 19-24.

The stories of David in the second half of 1 Samuel are a great read, so you may just want to enjoy the narrative! But you may also wish to be on the lookout for ways in which David foreshadows king Jesus:

  • He battles with the ‘seed of the serpent’ (Gen 3:15). We have already seen this in him defeating Goliath in Ch 17.
  • He saves his people (c.f. 9:16)
  • He restrains his people from doing evil (c.f. 9:17)
  • He is an unexpected king
  • He is opposed by the establishment
  • He wanders in deserts, caves and mountains
  • He is betrayed by those he serves
  • He entrusts himself to God (e.g. rather than trying to kill Saul)

(list adapted from Jim Hamilton)

NOTE: Days 1-5 of each week contain the scripture reading for that week. Day 6 has just the 'key chapters'. If you want a briefer version of this plan that still takes you through the whole Bible, you could just read the key chapters featured on day 6. Day 7 has the podcast video where we discuss the week's reading.

About this Plan

The Bible OverBrew - Bible in a Year

The Bible OverBrew is a friendly virtual book group, helping you read the Bible in big chunks, preferably with a mug of tea! Maybe you've tried to read through the Bible before, but gave up when it felt confusing or too intense? We are here to help you! We provide notes and questions to guide your reading, and note ‘key chapters’ if you don’t have time to read it all. In our podcast at the end of each week we draw out the key themes, and how it all points to Christ. We’d love you to join us!
