Product Description
Mephibosheth was a son of Jonathan and also the grandson of King Saul, Israel's first king. When Saul and his sons died in battle at Mount Gilboa, Mephibosheth was only five years old. His nurse picked him up and was fleeing, but in her haste she dropped him, injuring both his feet and making him lame for life.
Many years later, David had become king and inquired about any descendants of King Saul. Instead of planning to kill the previous king's line, as was the custom in those days, David wanted to honor them, in memory of his friend Jonathan and out of respect for Saul.
This original tune scored for SATB by Joseph Pugh gives insight into how Mephibosheth may have thought and felt.
