A fascinating study on the life of David in 1st and 2nd Samuel, this “Reconstructive Commentary” by Roy Standeven, provides a detailed real life look at the various phases of life of this famous king of Israel. It covers his ‘early days’, his years as a courtier, and his fugitive years, before his times at Hebron and entry to Zion. The sections on “To Know Oneself” and “Towards Maturity” provide a wealth of exhortation and guidance for all who seek to be people “after God’s own heart”. With over 20 maps and illustrations this is a most highly recommended volume. 480 pages. Paperback. Roelian Books.
