Subject: How did King Saul fend off evil? |
Bible Note: Searcher, No, I did not say that Saul "fended off the evil spirit that sometimes came upon him" when he threw a spear at David. I did not say that. What I did say is that when the evil spirit came upon Saul, Saul reacted by throwing a spear at David, and Saul did that twice. Nowhere in 1 Sam. 16:15-23 does it say that David played the harp to appease Saul's anger. All it says is that David played the harp frequently. Please don't read anything into my Answers that I did not originally intend to be there. If this post is too complicated for you or not "straight forward" enough, then please let me know. Thank you. - Makarios |
