Read the Saul Syndrome.

According to the Hebrew Bible, Saul was the first king of a united Kingdom of Israel and Judah. He would have lived circa 1082 BC–1010 BC, was anointed by the prophet Samuel and reigned from Gibeah.

Born: 1082 BC, Gibeah

Died: 1010 BC, Mount Gilboa, Israel

Parents: Kish

Children: Jonathan, Michal, Ish-bosheth, Merab, Abinadab, Malchishua

The election of a king or ruler who was both Commander in Chief of the Military and the chief executive officer of Israel was covered in 1 Samuel 8. God warned that he would take and take and take and rule over you and when you cried out he would not hear the people because they were rejecting God by this election.

This also lead to the corruption of Saul and his own self destruction in what we call The Saul Syndrome?
