1Sa 10:20-21 | MHM | STEP | v. 20–21 : To make the choice of king clear to everyone, Samuel used the casting of lots. The tribe of Benjamin was chosen, then the family of Matri, and finally Saul, the son of Kish. This process showed that the decision came from God and not from human influence. The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord (1 Samuel 10:20-21; Proverbs 16:33 ).
