Verse 4 is found in chapter 25 of 1 Samuel. Samuel’s death marks an important transition in the story and leaves Israel without its main prophetic figure from the previous period. The narrative then introduces Nabal, a wealthy man whose name and behavior are presented in contrast. David, protecting flocks in the wilderness, requests provisions after having treated Nabal’s shepherds well. Nabal’s refusal and insulting words provoke David’s anger. The episode presents a new test of his character, different from Saul’s persecution.
