King Saul was jealous of David, but Saul offered his daughter, Michal to David as a wife. David said he was too poor to give a dowry to Saul for his daughter, but Saul said he wanted no dowry, but wanted David to avenge him (Saul) upon the Philistines by bringing 100 foreskins of the enemy back to him.

But Saul's motive was not what he said, but rather he wanted David to engage in battle with the Philistines in hopes that David would be killed.
