And who did they get? SAUL. He was the TALLEST man in Israel.

He was incompetent, jealous, headstrong and a murderer.

He was replaced by David, the exact opposite of all those traits..........

Incompetent -"David may not build a house for my name because he is a man of war and has shed blood" 1 Chr 22:8

Jealous - Commits adultery with Bathsheba

Headstrong and a murderer - Arranges for the death of Uriah.

David was all those things.

Well except for the murder of Uriah the Hittite.

Done by other means, of course.

Yet David is called a man after God’s own heart. Interesting stuff.

No offense intended, BTW. Just showing that God uses all types of men. Amazing.

David is certainly remembered more fondly but he too had serious flaws

Very serious flaws that involved jealousy etc and sending another man to his death so he could take his wife

That was my KJV upbringing
