== Introduction ==
[[File:voicesam.jpg|right|350px|thumb|This Chapter is about the rejection of God by the [[voice]] of the people. It is a pivotal point in the history of Israel and will not only lead in the [[foolish]]ness of [[King Saul]] causing his government to fail but it would [[degenerate]] the people and give rise to [[tyranny]]. Many do not learn from history and are condemned to repeat its mistakes. Israel would fall as a nation because they abandoned [[the way]] of God for the ways of [[Cain]], [[Nimrod]], [[Pharaoh]], and [[Caesar]] and  eventually reject God himself. Like the [[modern Christian]] they said they believed but they stopped being [[doers]] of God's word.]]

1 Samuel 8 is often quoted by men [http://www.hisholychurch.org/documents/commonsense.php (like Thomas Paine in Common Sense)] to show that the rise of governments holding an exercising authority over the people is evidence of the people rejecting God.


The giver and ''[[love]]r'' of ''life'', the grantor of rights and responsibilities should rule mankind in their hearts and minds. But to give men the power to rule over you and your neighbor because of sloth or the desire for benefits at the [[ Biting one another|expense of others]] is a rejection of that God of love and life and [[Merchandise|bring the people]] and their [[Curse children|children under the curse]] of [[1 Samuel 8]].

This Chapter is about the rejection of God by the voice of the people. It is a pivotal point in the history of Israel and will not only lead in the foolishness of King Saul causing his government to fail but it would degenerate the people and give rise to tyranny. Many do not learn from history and are condemned to repeat its mistakes. Israel would fall as a nation because they abandoned the way of God for the ways of Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh, and Caesar and eventually reject God himself. Like the modern Christian they said they believed but they stopped being doers of God's word.

Israel Demands a King

1 Samuel 8:1 And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel.

2 Now the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abiah: they were judges in Beersheba.

3 And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted judgment.[1]

Study
1 Samuel 8 is often quoted by men (like Thomas Paine in Common Sense) to show that rise of governments which exercise authority or power over the masses comes from when people look to governments to solve their problems. When the voice of the people cry out to elect rulers we are seeing the evidence of the people rejecting God.
The giver and lover of life, the grantor of rights and responsibilities should rule mankind in their hearts and minds. But to give men the power to rule over you and your neighbor because of sloth or the desire for benefits at the expense of others is a rejection of that God of love and life and bring the people and their children under the curse of 1 Samuel 8.
The more power people give to their governments the more they reject God and the farther they are from God. The more they make the welfare State their father and eat at his table the more they are snared in the bondage of Egypt.
Unless the people repent when they cry out God says he will not hear them.
Comments
The election of rulers and the covetous practices of the people cause corrupts the leaders of society and the people until they become human resources and curses their children become a surety for debt.
V22 they do not go back to their tents but to their city. This will become a city of blood as they been to biting one another through an appetite for the dainties of rulers.
No ruler should be given the power to return the people to the bondage of Egypt and the people should keep that precept in their minds if they include the warnings and instructions of the five elements of a constitutional order or system of government found in Deuteronomy 17:16.
If the people and their priests forget the way of Pure religion and go the way of public religion with its force, fealty, and covetous practices of those greedy for gain they will become human resources and curse children. We need to know that the dainties of rulers are deceitful meats.[2]
We will see the mechanism for this when Saul chooses to force a sacrifice of the people even for a good cause but is called foolish by Samuel and warned that his kingdom would fall. This lesson for the masses was taught by many and warnings are rampant throughout the Bible from Exodus to Revelation.
Only repenting and seeking the kingdom of God will provide for their salvation because Christ sacrificed himself so that they might be saved.

4 Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah,

5 And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us[3] like all the nations.

6 But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us[3]. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.

7 And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected[4] me, that I should not reign over them.

8 According to all the works[5] which they have done[6] since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.

9 Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.

Samuel's Warning Against Kings

10 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.

11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you[7]: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.

12 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.

13 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.

14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.

15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.

16 And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.

17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.

Not hear you

18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear[8] you in that day.[6]

The Lord Grants Israel's Request

19 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;

20 That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.

21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.

22 And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.

Footnotes

  1. ↑ The Levites formed a system of appeals courts which were called the cities of refuge through a network of ministers created by the choice of the people through the patterns of tens in free assemblies. These courts could acquit people who did not get a fair trial in local congregations of the people. But if they took bribes the guilty might go free from recompense. The people could prevent that corruption if they chose their ministers with an eye on that distant corruption. But if the people were not interested in the weightier matters for everyone in the nation corruption and bribes will go unchecked.
