War Between the House of Saul and the House of David
1 Now there was long war between the house of Saul and the house of David; but David waxed stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker.
2 And unto David were sons born in Hebron: and his firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess;
3 and his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;
4 and the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;
5 and the sixth, Ithream, by Eglah David’s wife. These were born to David in Hebron.
6 And it came to pass, while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner made himself strong for the house of Saul.
7 And Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. And Ishbosheth said to Abner, “Why hast thou gone in unto my father’s concubine?”
8 Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, “Am I a dog’s head, who against Judah do show kindness this day unto the house of Saul thy father, to his brethren and to his friends, and have not delivered thee into the hand of David, that thou chargest me today with a fault concerning this woman?
9 God so do to Abner, and more also, unless, as the Lord hath sworn to David, even so I do to him:
10 to translate the kingdom from the house of Saul and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba.”
11 And he could not answer Abner a word again, because he feared him.
12 And Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, “Whose land is it?” saying also, “Make thy league with me, and behold, my hand shall be with thee to bring about all Israel unto thee.”
13 And he said, “Well; I will make a league with thee, but one thing I require of thee, that is: thou shalt not see my face, unless thou first bring Michal, Saul’s daughter, when thou comest to see my face.”
14 And David sent messengers to Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, saying, “Deliver me my wife Michal, whom I espoused to me for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”
15 And Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband, even from Paltiel the son of Laish.
16 And her husband went along with her, weeping behind her, to Bahurim. Then said Abner unto him, “Go, return.” And he returned.
17 And Abner had communication with the elders of Israel, saying, “Ye sought for David in times past to be king over you.
18 Now then do it; for the Lord hath spoken of David, saying, ‘By the hand of My servant David, I will save My people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines and out of the hand of all their enemies.’”
19 And Abner also spoke in the ears of Benjamin; and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel and that seemed good to the whole house of Benjamin.
20 So Abner came to David at Hebron, and twenty men with him. And David made Abner and the men who were with him a feast.
21 And Abner said unto David, “I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel unto my lord the king, that they may make a league with thee, and that thou mayest reign over all that thine heart desireth.” And David sent Abner away, and he went in peace.
22 And behold, the servants of David and Joab came from pursuing a troop and brought in a great spoil with them; but Abner was not with David in Hebron, for he had sent him away, and he had gone in peace.
23 When Joab and all the host that was with him had come, they told Joab, saying, “Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he hath sent him away, and he has gone in peace.”
24 Then Joab came to the king and said, “What hast thou done? Behold, Abner came unto thee; why is it that thou hast sent him away, and he is quite gone?
25 Thou knowest Abner the son of Ner, that he came to deceive thee, and to know thy going out and thy coming in, and to know all that thou doest.”
26 And when Joab had come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, who brought him back from the well of Sirah; but David knew it not.
27 And when Abner had returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him quietly, and smote him there under the fifth rib, so that he died for the blood of Asahel his brother.
28 And afterward when David heard it, he said, “I and my kingdom are guiltless before the Lord for ever from the blood of Abner the son of Ner.
29 Let it rest on the head of Joab and on all his father’s house; and let there never fail from the house of Joab one who hath an issue, or who is a leper, or who leaneth on a staff, or who falleth on the sword, or who lacketh bread.”
30 So Joab and Abishai his brother slew Abner, because he had slain their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.
31 And David said to Joab and to all the people who were with him, “Rend your clothes and gird yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn before Abner.” And King David himself followed the bier.
32 And they buried Abner in Hebron. And the king lifted up his voice and wept at the grave of Abner; and all the people wept.
33 And the king lamented over Abner and said, “Died Abner as a fool dieth?
34 Thy hands were not bound nor thy feet put into fetters. As a man falleth before wicked men, so fellest thou.” And all the people wept again over him.
35 And when all the people came to cause David to eat meat while it was yet day, David swore, saying, “So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread or aught else till the sun be down.”
36 And all the people took notice of it, and it pleased them, as whatsoever the king did pleased all the people.
37 For all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not because of the king that Abner the son of Ner was slain.
38 And the king said unto his servants, “Know ye not that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel?
39 And I am this day weak, though anointed king; and these men, the sons of Zeruiah, are too hard for me. The Lord shall reward the doer of evil according to his wickedness.” — 2 Samuel 3 | 21st Century King James Version (KJV21) The Holy Bible; 21st Century King James Version Copyright © 1994 by Deuel Enterprises, Inc.

HER STORY: Kings and Queens, Michal
Embedded within the story of David, Israel’s most beloved king, and of whom the Lord said was a man after God’s own heart, is the tragic story of Michal, a Benjamite princess and daughter of king Saul. #Michal #KingSaul #KingDavid
Embedded within the story of David, Israel’s most beloved king, and of whom the Lord said was a man after God’s own heart, is the tragic story of Michal, a Benjamite princess and daughter of king Saul. Her story begins in Late Bronze Age Canaan. The twelve tribes of Israel were still in the throes of coalescing into a kingdom, beleaguered by battle after battle with the powerful Philistines,…

Effortless
Highlighting the artist who made Simon "Ghost" Riley such a compelling imaginary boyfriend for us all - his actor Samuel Roukin.
Sam's vibes are so, so different from Neil Ellice's in-your-face "Look at me, I'm amazing!" (you are, lovie, you truly are) or Barry Sloane's Hot Boy flirtatiousness.
Sam knows he's The Shit and he doesn't preen. He just lets us notice.
Look at him slip in and out of Ghost's gravelly drawl like it's a piece of silk.
I love his subtle, self assured, ginger beanpole ass.

So I got my mom into The Walking Dead and I thought I’d post about her journey so far.
Her favorite character is Judith hands down
She cried when Amy died
She screamed as much as Lori did when Judith was born
She was VERY interested in Daryl holding Judith
We got a scream when Patricia got mobbed, and an “oh, no…” when we learned what happened to Duane
Merle and Andrea were her least favorite characters until they both died — she hated the way Merle treated Daryl and she hated the way Andrea was always blinded by a dick. She was also terrified of Shane
She cried a LOT when Maggie was talking to Hershel while he was in his little leg coma because she lost her dad and it was hitting really hard
As of today we have
A shout when The Governor killed Martinez
A very loud gasp when The Governer killed Hershel
A full-body “OH, MY GOD!!!” when The Governor put down Meghan
Actually screaming at Rick to kill The Governor while they were fistfighting
A very loud “OH, NO” when she believed Judith was dead
She kept asking if Rick was dead while he was passed out in the house
We had a very interesting discussion about who was living in the house where Carl got the pudding
A brief intermission so she could do work and the entire time she kept asking me about the prison bus that was supposed to have Glenn on it and she was REALLY upset that something might’ve happened to Judith
When we picked up at like 8 PM she was ELATED to discover that Judith was okay. Then she started yelling at Tyreese for leaving the kids alone to go help someone
She’s terrified that Lizzie is gonna hurt Judith because “that girl has issues”
Side note, when Daryl and Beth found that massacre and she saw the kid’s show she was like “ARE THOSE THE KIDS??? ARE THOSE ALL THE KIDS?!?!” Despite the walkers and corpses being grown adults
She just saw the bus she wanted to see so bad and she even didn’t realize that it was the same bus
This woman turned 53 yesterday and her TWD journey is just beginning. She is already distrustful of Terminus but I can’t wait to see how she reacts to them being cannibals
EDIT: Mom enjoyed the middle finger house fire 🖕

I cannot for the life of me understand all this bullshit about Sam Roukin’s looks.
Who in the absolute *fuck* thinks this man is not genuinely handsome? I understand having a preference but it’s out of hand how many posts and comments I see criticizing his looks and how some wish he was different.
I mean making fun of the man’s eyes straight up in the chat?? Who the fuck are you people doing this???
Sam is 43 with this just… lovely head of dusty blonde hair and striking, expressive icy blue eyes… strong jaw… pretty teeth… tall as hell… fit… masculine… ???????? What else do u people want??
Maybe it’s because I’m 30 and I don’t think a seasoned early to mid-40’s special ops veteran should be out here looking like an anime character but who the fuck am I lmfao I mean… be real
Sam is perfect for Ghost and if they for some reason didn’t model Ghost’s actual looks after him just as they did the other characters, it’d be a fucking slap in the face to his performance and hard work in bringing new life to this character.
He deserves to be Ghost’s face. No one would be going this batshit crazy over Ghost if it weren’t for Sam.
And for god’s sake behave in his livestream chat. Stop calling him daddy and asking him if he supports the Soap x Ghost ship. Fucking weird as shit. He’s a real fucking person just like me and you and deserves to be treated like one.
Y’all should be ashamed

Anyway I don't understand all this meanness in commenting on Sam's physical appearance, do you really expect Ghost to be a fucking Calvin Klein model in 20? He is a forty year old man, with wrinkles, scars and even a little fat. And as for Sam I can understand that everyone has different tastes but going on his live on IG or on social media to write "he has the Blue Eye stare xdxd" or "he's very ugly" or pushing in his live to leave his wife because you ship Ghost with Soap (or worse because girls think they are in Lolita and no, he won't get involved with you who are little girls)shows how much this fandom sucks.

My new theory is that Michael, Uriel, and Saraqael/Sandalphon are going to be the catty mean girls of Heaven while Aziraphale is supreme archangel and Aziraphale is going to be the poor Cady Heron/Veronica Sawyer/Elle Woods
