The Israelites were unwilling to listen to Samuels warning.

What do you make of this chapter? What do you think of my summary? How would you summarise it?

I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.

These are the summaries of the book of 1 Samuel.

They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
