In this excellent commentary, David G. Firth takes seriously the narrative techniques employed in the books of Samuel and explores the central theme of how the reign of God is worked out in the interplay between king and prophet.

Reviews
This commentary on two of the more exciting books of the Bible is a real asset to pastors and Bible students. Firth is becoming quite the prolific commentator of late and tackles here another historical book of the Bible. . . . This is a fine volume. As a point of comparison, this volume is far superior to the well known Word Biblical Commentary volumes covering the same material. I highly recommend it. * Jimmy Reagan, The Reagan Review, October 5, 2015 *
