1 Samuel 12 - 14 

Saul appears to have been very influenced by those around him. When Samuel doesn't come when expected, Saul sacrificed because the people were scattering. I find myself wondering if this was from insecurity? I also wonder if I am putting modern day ideas on an ancient culture. Actually, I'm sure that I am, but am I doing it here specifically? 

14:21. Does this mean that some of the Israelites had defected to the Philistines previously?
