Who are Kingdom Bible Animations?
Kingdom Bible Animations brings Scripture to life through cinematic 3D animation for teen and adult viewers. We retell the narratives of the Bible in full, without flattening them. The wars and famines, the exiles and betrayals, the prophets nobody wanted to hear, the life and death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. These are serious stories, and we animate them as such: grounded in the text, set in their historical context, and told with the weight they carry.
Who was Saul?
Saul was a monarch of ancient Israel and Judah and, according to the Hebrew Bible and Old Testament, the first king of the United Monarchy. His reign, traditionally placed in the late eleventh century BC, marked the transition of the Israelites from a scattered tribal society ruled by various judges to organized statehood. The historicity of Saul and the United Kingdom of Israel is not universally accepted, as what is known of both comes largely from the Hebrew Bible. According to the text, he was anointed as king of the Israelites by Samuel, and reigned from Gibeah. Saul is said to have committed suicide when he fell on his sword during a battle with the Philistines at Mount Gilboa, in which three of his sons were also killed. Saul's son Ish-bosheth succeeded him to the throne, reigning for only two years before being murdered by his own military leaders. Saul's son-in-law David then became king.
