Question

How long did king Saul rule for

Answer 1

The correct answer is - 20 years.

King Saul was a king that was beloved by his people. He was known as king that is very generous, modest, has nice heart, and looks after his people. Saul got anointed as the king of Israel in secrecy by the prophet Samuel, after a chance meeting.

Initially, he was a shepherd, so he was not a man from the high class, but his character and actions brought him a crown. He ruled Israel for 20 years, from 1020 BC until 1000 BC.
