About this listen
In this episode of the Legacy Bible Podcast, we open to 2 Samuel 21 and examine a sobering moment near the end of King David’s life. A three-year famine exposes a forgotten sin—an oath broken decades earlier—and reminds us of a powerful truth: the Lord never forgets when His name is dishonored.
We explore Israel’s covenant with the Gibeonites, Saul’s misguided zeal, and David’s commitment to righteousness, even when obedience comes at great personal cost. This study calls believers to seek the Lord’s counsel, honor His name, and live with thankful, surrendered hearts—knowing that God is both holy and faithful.
