These studies cover the ancient grouping of Hebrew Bible writings called Nevi’im (Prophets) and Ketuvim (Writings). These books include from Joshua through Malachi in the conventional Christian canon.
The “Snake” of Ammon picks a fight with Israel, giving Saul his first test as leader. His success cemented his authority. Yet some despising of him mirrors the rejection of Yeshua as God’s Messiah.
What do the strange references to donkeys, goats, bread, wine and musical instruments have to do with the anointing of Saul as ruler? What do these symbols have to do with the Messiah?
There seems to be a messianic prophecy underlying the strange account of Saul going to search for donkeys. It may help explain why Yeshua the Messiah has two roles in His first coming and second coming.
The LORD predicted this time would come, when His people would tire of His leadership and representative government with occasional leadership via judges and prophets. Sadly, the LORD allows His people to make a huge mistake in putting their trust in a dictator rather than Him, with the aim of finally establishing the ultimate in benevolent strong leadership, the Messiah.

In this passage, Philistia learned unpleasantly that the God of Israel superseded their god Dagon.
