Hope Beyond Despair: Finding Truth After A Loved One’s Suicideनमूना

Saul, the son of Kish, is another suicide recorded in Scripture. Saul was appointed as Israel’s first king. He was a very handsome man (1 Samuel 9:2). He was married to a woman named Ahinoam, and had at least five children: three sons and two daughters (1 Samuel 14:49-50). Saul committed suicide on the battlefield after he was wounded by archers. He took his own life out of fear of torture by his enemies.
