 What deep sorrow for Samuel! Though knowing this man to be rejected, he intercedes for him all night long. Samuel, as we have often noticed, is always praying and interceding ―for the disobedient, for the wicked, and for everyone. He mourns, he prays, but he obeys; this is peculiar to faith ―the most absolute contrast with Saul's behavior. (1 Samuel 15 by H.L. Rossier)
