Best Answer

Saul and his attendant were looking for the lost she-asses of his father. You can read about this at 1 Samuel 9:3 -- 10:24. Their futile search led to his attendant recommending that they visit Samuel for help. They ended up dining with Samuel and spending the night. The following day Saul was anointed by Samuel as the first king of Israel. According to 1 Samuel 10:19, God regarded the people's request for a human king to be an act of unfaithfulness, ingratitude, and rejection of his leadership. Daniel 2:44 prophesies that soon God will restore heavenly rulership to the earth by means of his kingdom. This is the kingdom Jesus taught us to pray for in the Lord's Prayer at Matthew 6:10. Revelation 21:3, 4 describes what this kingdom will do that no other earthly rulership could ever accomplish.

What two biblical incidents tell of Saul meeting David?

A:1 Samuel 16:13 tells of Saul meeting David, son of Jesse, and of Saul anointing David with oil. 1 Samuel 16:21 says that, Saul having sent again for David, David came to him and became his armour bearer. 1 Samuel 17:31-32 says that David came to Saul, proposing to slay Goliath, and Saul gave David his own armour. 1 Samuel 17:58 then says that after killing Goliath, David came again to Saul, but Saul did not even recognise him. The author of this particular narrative seems unaware that elsewhere in the book, David had already been the king's armour bearer and then his personal musician.

Where was Saul first mentioned in the Bible?

That depends on which Saul you are talking about. There was king Saul who was the first divinely appointed king of Israel. His account is contained in the books 1 & 2 Samuel. On the other hand there was the man Saul who was a pharisee who originally dealt "outrageously" with the 1st Century Christian congregation (Acts 8:3). He then was later met in vision by the glorified Jesus Christ and converted to Christianity where he redirected that zeal to serving God as an apostle for Christ. His name was then changed to Paul. Paul's account is contained in the book of Acts, also in the many letters he wrote which are also part of the Christian Greek scriptures.
