Just to start, before I collapse. Remember to have a text handy.
chapter 35
David complains that he doesn't know what to do. Saul's persecuting him for nothing.
4- when someone behaves the way Saul did, it's no surprise that bad things happened to him in the end. (Comfort for us, considering the politics) No connection between G-d and Saul. Saul didn't listen to G-d and just didn't comprehend.
1st Samuel 18, 9 Saul's paranoia made him think that David was his enemy. In chapter 13, t'hilim, Saul didn't wait the full 7 days for Samuel to return, no faith, didn't follow instructions. Afterwards Shmuel told him that he had fouled up. and would be replaced. Then in Chapter 15, 26-8 Shmuel told him that he'd be replaced by someone better, but Saul had no idea who.
Sorry, but I'm too tired
