We know the trajectory and David’s actions here won't surprise us. He’s taken Abigail. He’s taken more concubines and wives. He’s taken Michal back when he already had all the other women - he shouldn’t surprise us but… “the LORD sees not as man sees; man looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the heart,” (1 Sam. 16:7).

A heart once right before God, a neighbor better than Saul. But before our time here is done. . .
