An Application1SA 18:8 Saul was forgetting God made him king and would (had already) pick the next one. Can't blame him too badly though, 1SA 18:7 was pretty rude. Maybe he was in denial, or did he really not know this was inevitable? He'll figure it out at least by 1SA 20:31. / 1SA 18:23 commendably, David didn't let his fame or success give him a big head.

Connect the DotsThere was no castle for this king, he ruled from his own home (1SA 18:10) probably the same house as before he was king. Israel's first castle will be built in 1KI 9:10. / The marriage to Michal will be a complicated one, with 1SA 19:11, 25:44, and 2SA 6:16. She was also his first of 8 wives. / Saul could relate to PR 19:21 and 21:30. / Compare 1SA 18:10 to Job 1:12, 2:6 and 1KI 22:19-22.
