First Samuel traces Israel’s transition from the judges to the monarchy, following Samuel’s ministry, the reign and rejection of Saul, and the rise of David from shepherd boy to anointed king-in-waiting. It probes what it means to have God as true king.
પણ યહોવાએ શમુએલને કહ્યું, “એનો દેખાવ અને ઊંચાઈ જોઈને તેને ધ્યાનમાં ન લો, કારણ હું તેનો અસ્વીકાર કરું છુ. યહોવાની દૃષ્ટિ અને માંનવની દૃષ્ટિમાં તફાવત હોય છે. માંણસો બાહ્ય દેખાવ જુએ છે, પરંતુ યહોવા માંણસના અંતર અને ભાવનાઓને જુએ છે.” — 1 Samuel 16:7 (Gujarati)
