The book of Samuel: chapter 8 part B

Description
Whither Malchut Welcome to our tenth in a continuing series on the book of Shmuel or Samuel and the founding of Jewish monarchy. Episode 10 This week we answer the questions from chapter 8 and the previous shiur and discuss how the request for kingship creates two distinct offices, that of ruler and of prophet, both dependent on one another for success. We also try to uncover how the events in chapter 8 are connected to the wildly different perspective in chapter 9. All this and more. Thanks for joining us and please consider sharing this recording with others. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/isaacson/support
