What's the difference?

Let's play a game of 'spot the difference'. Here's our two subjects: Saul and David.

Those 17th century painters sure have a lot to answer for.

Baroque art aside, why did God accept David and reject Saul as king of Israel? Such is the question for my current Old Testament essay.

Any thoughts from you godly, brainy droppers of grains of truth out there?

I'll post what's been jumping around in my head in a couple of days.
