1 Sam 19 - Saul goes after David again


Wow... Saul is really threatened by David! David has success at whatever he does and this makes Saul Jealous. David must have made a great impression on most others around him though. Jonathan (Saul's son), and Michal (David's wife and Saul's own daughter) go out of their way and take on risk in order to protect David from Saul. After David flees, Saul sends messengers to him 3 times and they all wind up prophesying so Saul has to come after David himself.

How is it that Saul prophesies at the end of the chapter?
Why does he remove his clothes?
Saul is proof that no matter what you have (fame, power, authority, wealth, etc.), you can still battle with insecurity, pride, resentment and more.
