    Abigail’s story begins during a traditionally joyful time, the sheep shearing festival. Many guests had gathered, and there was much feasting. Abigail was well-known for her gracious hospitality, and all the tables were generously supplied.
    As the celebration wore into the evening, ten plainly dressed men entered the pavilion and came to address Nabal. Would he be willing to share some of the festival food with a fellow Judahite, David? For David, along with his 600 warriors, had not only protected Nabal’s herds from marauders and wild animals all throughout the year, he had made sure Nabal’s property and servants were also protected.
    What they asked was well within the cultural ethos of their day. Tribes took care of their own, and both David and Nabal were of the tribe of Judah. What’s more, David’s father was also a wealthy and well-respected landowner and herdsman. But even if this were not so, God’s Law was clear.
    If there is among you anyone in need, a member of your community in any of your towns within the land that the Lord your God is giving you, do not be hard-hearted or tight-fisted toward your needy neighbor. You should rather open your hand, willingly lending enough to meet the need, whatever it may be.
    Be careful that you do not entertain a mean thought . . . and therefore view your needy neighbor with hostility and give nothing; your neighbor might cry to the Lord against you, and you would incur guilt.
    Give liberally and be ungrudging when you do so, for on this account the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in all that you undertake.
    Since there will never cease to be some in need on the earth, I therefore command you, “Open your hand to the poor and needy neighbor in your land.”
    Deuteronomy 15:7-11 (NRSV)
    There was only one possible answer Nabal could have given-a warm welcome and a generous sweep of his hand, come join us in the feast.
    But that is not what happened.
    Each video is designed to offer background scholarship on the topic, including setting, culture, original language, and archaeology, as well as a theological study.

    This is exactly what I was looking for, someone to break down what Abigail said to David. Several videos had the story but not this info. Wonderful!

    It is funny that I share the same name as Abigail. And God sometimes speaks through me when I least expect it. I loved the message and I hope that God continues to work through you, Joanne.

    I would love to be able to print out the transcript. It is full of information for a SS teacher or student studying Women of the Bible. You did a wonderful job and knowing the background helped me to understand so much more of Chapter 25

      Thank you Charlotte, that's exactly what I'm hoping to do, to support Bible teachers and provide free resources. I do have a book out of Bible studies, with a short background summary and fifteen questions for each of 32 women in the Bible. Abigail is one of the studies. The trailer is in my website.
      Grace and peace
