I'm struggling so much to actually read this section...not so much because of the content, but because I can't bring myself to open my eye up to read! Because of the pink eye, my eye will not stop watering and I can't keep it open in order to read...agh!

so if you were like me and thinking, man, we've already read this story about the shaving David's men, cutting off their garments in the middle at the buttocks and sending them away = it is because we did, in 2 Sam 10. It would be interesting to take some time to compare the two stories since the book of Chronicles and Samuel were written by different people and different time periods...

another interesting thing that my Bible pointed out was the mention of Satan. Apparently this is one of his earliest introductions.
Also, the mention of Satan is different in Chronicles, because in Samuel it says that God became angry.
So is this wherewe get the habbit of blaming everything on Satan? or was He the one behind the isrealites actions in the first place?
