Quotes to Consider:

Dale Ralph Davis on I Samuel 10:25: “Saul is under a law governing kingship, not to destroy his kingship but to allow it to function properly. And God’s people are under [Jehovah’s] law and commandments, not to inhibit and sour the Christian life but to order it and protect it from an alien bondage … For Christ’s people the law should no longer be dreadful curse but glad obedience—if we prize our freedom.”
