Commentary

1 Samuel 25 is a chapter that focuses on the story of David and Nabal. In this chapter, David is in the wilderness of Paran and he sends ten of his men to Nabal's house to ask for provisions. Nabal, however, is unkind and refuses to give David and his men anything. When David hears of Nabal's refusal, he is angry and decides to take revenge. He gathers four hundred men and sets out to attack Nabal's house. Meanwhile, Nabal's wife Abigail hears of David's plan and quickly takes action. She gathers provisions and sets out to meet David. When she finds him, she pleads with him to spare her husband and his house. David is moved by her words and decides to forgive Nabal. This chapter is a great example of how God can use people to bring about his will. Abigail's quick thinking and willingness to put herself in danger to save her husband and his house is a testament to her faith and courage. It is also a reminder that God can use even the most unlikely of people to bring about his will. In this case, Abigail's actions saved her husband and his house from destruction.
