And It Came About After Saul's Death I really appreciate [Lukiv's poetry]...good vibes, tODD, Monday's Poet (USA). It's a...beautifully written [collection] that I'll have to read several, if not hundreds of times, before I can grasp the full meaning of [Lukiv's] work. Maybe I never will, because...writers implant secrets known only to them in their poems, Jerry Foster, LyricSmiths. * First Edition: (Quesnel, BC: LukivPress, 2011). Second Edition: (Monday's Poet [USA], 2011, December [a brief appearance]). Third Edition: (Picton, ON: LyricSmiths, 2012). Revised Edition: (Victoria, BC: LukivPress, 2022). * Now There Happened to Be a Certain Man of Ramathaimzophim and And It Came About After Saul's Death: I found [Lukiv's] poetry and project [1,189 poems based on 1,189 chapters of the Bible] of interest, Henry Aitken, Poetry, Songs and Writers of Scotland. * Introduction Gad and Nathan, two prophets close to David, wrote dramatic and intense Second Samuel (completed about 1040 BCE), which highlights that Judean king's highly public relationship with Jehovah over 40 years. This emotionally charged narrative (of 24 chapters) describes Israel's transformation from a place of chaos and strife to one of unity and prosperity under this brave and steadfast king. The book helps readers meditate on not only what godly obedience and integrity mean, but also on what sort of individuals Jehovah finds spiritually agreeable. An excerpt Chapter 2 What gift,
Or curse,
Slices foe and spills
His own sap?
See the gazelle
Speeding through
Tall grass
Into the wide
Jaws of the hungry
Wolf. See
Asahel-
Unsluggish feet!
She-bear!
Man upon a swift
Arrow!
Esteemed among
30! Abner cried:
Stop!
Again,
Stop!
With death bluntly
Sticking from his
Back, ruptured
Asahel, the fallen
Gazelle and dead lion,
Left bitterness
And revenge for
Joab, his brother,
To chew. The author Dan Lukiv, published in 19 countries, is a poet, novelist, columnist, short story and article writer, and independent education researcher (hermeneutic phenomenology).
