Attacking Jason’s house, they searched for them to bring them out to the public assembly.When they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brothers before the city officials, shouting,“ These men who have turned the world upside down have come here too,and Jason has welcomed them. They are all acting contrary to Caesar’s decrees, saying that there is another king— Jesus.”

1 Samuel 19 3-1 Samuel 19 15
I’ll go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are and talk to him about you. When I see what he says, I’ll tell you.”Jonathan spoke well of David to his father, Saul. He said to him,“ The king should not sin against his servant David. He hasn’t sinned against you; in fact, his actions have been a great advantage to you.He took his life in his hands when he struck down the Philistine, and the LORD brought about a great victory for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced, so why would you sin against innocent blood by killing David for no reason?”Saul listened to Jonathan’s advice and swore an oath:“ As surely as the LORD lives, David will not be killed.”So Jonathan summoned David and told him all these words. Then Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he served him as he did before.When war broke out again, David went out and fought against the Philistines. He defeated them with such great force that they fled from him.Now an evil spirit sent from the LORD came on Saul as he was sitting in his palace holding a spear. David was playing the lyre,and Saul tried to pin David to the wall with the spear. As the spear struck the wall, David eluded Saul, ran away, and escaped that night.Saul sent agents to David’s house to watch for him and kill him in the morning. But his wife Michal warned David,“ If you don’t escape tonight, you will be dead tomorrow!”So she lowered David from the window, and he fled and escaped.Then Michal took the household idol and put it on the bed, placed some goat hair on its head, and covered it with a garment.When Saul sent agents to seize David, Michal said,“ He’s sick.”Saul sent the agents back to see David and said,“ Bring him on his bed so I can kill him.”

1 Samuel 22 14-1 Samuel 22 19
Ahimelech replied to the king,“ Who among all your servants is as faithful as David? He is the king’s son-in-law, captain of your bodyguard, and honored in your house.Was today the first time I inquired of God for him? Of course not! Please don’t let the king make an accusation against your servant or any of my father’s family, for your servant didn’t have any idea about all this.”But the king said,“ You will die, Ahimelech— you and your father’s whole family!”Then the king ordered the guards standing by him,“ Turn and kill the priests of the LORD because they sided with David. For they knew he was fleeing, but they didn’t tell me.” But the king’s servants would not lift a hand to execute the priests of the LORD.So the king said to Doeg,“ Go and execute the priests!” So Doeg the Edomite went and executed the priests himself. On that day, he killed eighty-five men who wore linen ephods.He also struck down Nob, the city of the priests, with the sword— both men and women, infants and nursing babies, oxen, donkeys, and sheep.
