Additional Reading
Martin Noth, Geschichte Israels (1950; The History of Israel, 2nd ed., pp. 164–178, 1960); and John Bright, A History of Israel, pp. 163–174 (1959), provide the best historical assessments of Saul’s reign. A somewhat romanticized but provocative personality study is in Fleming James, Personalities of the Old Testament, pp. 96–116 (1939).
