Lies and Tragedy
Read 1 Samuel 21:1–9 and 1 Samuel 22:6–23 and answer the following questions:
What lie did David tell to Ahimelech about why he was there?
What happened to Ahimelech as a result of his trust in David?
How did Saul seek to turn his own men against David? What kind of argument did he use?
How does Ahimelech respond to Saul regarding the character and faithfulness of David?
What does this story tell us about just how fallen and degenerate and vengeful King Saul has become?
Why do you think Doeg, a foreigner, would do what the servants of Saul refused to do?
How does David respond to the news of the massacre? In what ways was his response correct?
What promise does David make to the one son of Ahimelech who managed to escape the slaughter?
Look at the contrast in this story between honor and dishonor, faithfulness and faithlessness. Look at the havoc wreaked from dishonesty and sin. What kind of moral questions are you facing right now; what kind of moral choices must you make? Think through the consequences of your actions before you take them.
