10-04-2013 – Another example of helplessness in the face of the enemy is found in I Samuel 30 where David’s wife is kidnapped. It is shortly before the death of Saul. David has been released from employment by the Philistine King Achish. So David returns to his home at Ziklag to find that the dreaded Amalekites have raided the town burned it and taken captive all of the people, including his wives Ahinoam and Abigal. The whole town, men, women, and children have been taken captive to be sold into slavery.
