1 Samuel 18 - 20

David strikes up a friendship with King Saul's son, Jonathan, and marries the king's daughter, Michal.  Through specific events, Saul begins to suspect that David is the man God is raising up to eventually take his place.  Saul attempted to end David's life several times in various ways, but David acted wisely and was protected from each attempt.  Jonathan enters into an agreement with David that will help protect and preserve him as well.
