Discussion Questions
  1. Why did God hold Israel accountable for Saul's actions against the Gibeonites generations after the original covenant was made?
  2. How does this episode challenge the idea that religious zeal justifies breaking inconvenient commitments?
  3. What does this account teach believers about integrity, promises, and accountability before God today?
