What command did God give King Saul?

God commanded King Saul to completely destroy the Amalekites, including men, women, children, and animals, as punishment for their past sins against the Israelites. However, King Saul spared the Amalekite king Agag and the best of the livestock, which led to God rejecting Saul as king.


Why saul sons did not succeed him?

Saul's sons, Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, did not succeed him as king because they all died in battle against the Philistines, including Saul himself. After Saul's death, David was anointed as the next king of Israel.


Was the king of the Amalekites that Saul spared?

The king of the Amalekites that Saul spared was Agag. Scripture records that Samuel killed Agag after Saul had failed to carry out God's command to completely destroy the Amalekites.


What musical instrument would soothe King Sauls spirit?

The musical instrument that would soothe King Saul's spirit was the harp. It says so in 1 Samuel 16: 23 that Saul was pleased with David's harp playing and relief would come to Saul.


Did Saul anoint David as king of Israel?

No. Depending on the source you prefer, either Samuel anointed David, or the elders of Israel anointed him. In 1 Samuel, God was angry with King Saul for disobeying Samuel's instructions to utterly destroy the Amaleks and all their animals, so Samuel secretly anointed David to replace Saul as king. The Book of Chronicles contains no mention of Samuel's role in anointing Saul as king - the elders of Israel simply joined in anointing David king by acclamation, in gratitude for his leadership under Saul.
