Everyone was gone. David, his strength spent from weeping and his tunic torn in his grief, had collapsed to his knees into the smoking ashes of his home. Only the doorposts of the house had survived. Blackened and smeared with soot, the words of the Shema could still be faintly seen where David had engraved them upon the posts. They mocked him. Had he truly obeyed the LORD his God? For if he had, would this have happened? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e All around him, the wails and cries of his men smote the sky, their agony and despair an enemy he could not evade, could not hide from. And his wives were gone. Everyone was gone. No one had found a single body. It was the exact opposite of what David had done in his own invasions. Instead of killing everyone, the invaders had stolen everyone. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In a way, it was worse. David's imagination ran rampant. He knew what evil men were capable of. He knew what happened to women and children taken captive. He knew. And it terrified him. His men knew too. Fear, like a hungry beast let loose among imprisoned sheep, stalked through the men, devouring their hearts, their very souls, adding to David's own despair. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e For the men now spoke of stoning him. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \"Stand upon your feet, son of Jesse \" roared a voice David knew too well. \"This evil be upon your head \" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Yet David did not have the strength to stand. He looked up. The pockmarked face of Shobal quivered in terrible rage. David remembered then that even a man such as he had a wife. David had never gotten to know her, and it struck him then that Shobal might also have children, children who were now captives of a roaming band of invaders. How could he ever be king when he could not even protect his own? \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 266\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 31, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47250676318457,"sku":"9798681338109","price":16.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/Y1BTbE5PRS9BbmhENzFxR2p6WFhlQT09.webp?v=1768664654","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/king-a-king-david-novel-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
