Once again, even when Saul is dead, David is still respectful of Saul and his household. When Joab killed Abner, the assistant to Saul's house, David cursed Joab and his household.
Also, when the two men from raiding bands killed Ish-Bosheth, one of Saul's sons, David had them killed.
David's loyalty to Saul, the Lord's anointed, is extremely commendable. It makes me think of the leaders of this country. I believe they are in their positions because God set them there and for that, even if they do not always do the right thing, or the best thing, I will be loyal to them and have the utmost respect for them. I believe that is what we are called to do as Christians.
