Bible Lives: Abigail
Wise, quick and brave.
“Blessed be thy advice, and blessed be thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to shed blood.”1 SAMUEL 25:33
Abigail was “a woman of good understanding.” Her husband Nabal was “churlish and evil in his doings,” and his name literally means “fool.” When Nabal insulted David and David headed over with 400 armed men, Abigail packed a feast, rode out to meet him, and talked a future king out of revenge. Her story is for anyone dealing with a difficult person, and anyone tempted to get even.
