1000 BC: King David and Mephibosheth

Published: June 13, 2015, 2:35 a.m.

b'King David, the benevolent monarch, sits in his palace and declares these words: \\u201cis there anyone still left of the house of Saul to whom I can show kindness for Jonathan\\u2019s sake?\\u201d Then, David learns that Jonathan, his best friend, has a surviving son named Mephibosheth, who is lame in both feet.

Mephibosheth goes to the king assuming his life was going to end because he was the surviving grandson of the previous King Saul, but instead King David does something, again, that is way beyond his time and shows the heart of God towards his children.

2 Samuel 9
Matthew 25:34
