Page "Saul" Paragraph 26

* () Samuel is surreptitiously sent by God to Jesse.

While offering a sacrifice in the vicinity, Samuel includes Jesse among the invited guests.

Dining together, Jesse's sons are brought one by one to Samuel, each time being rejected by him, speaking for God ; running out of sons, Jesse sends for David, the youngest, who was tending sheep.

When brought to Samuel, David is anointed by him in front of his other brothers.
