At the LORD’s direction David goes up to Hebron, where the men of Judah anoint him king. But Abner, Saul’s commander, sets Saul’s son Ish-bosheth over the northern tribes, and civil war smolders between the two houses. A brutal contest at the pool of Gibeon leads to lasting enmity when Abner reluctantly kills Joab’s brother Asahel in self-defense.
