Who is King Saul?

A tall, gaunt older man with greying dark hair and a worried lined face, wearing an ankle-length undyed linen tunic beneath a heavy ultramarine wool mantle pinned with a bronze fibula. A beaten-bronze diadem crosses his forehead; cross-strapped sandals, a short olive-wood rod of office, and sheathed bronze sword mark Israelite kingship.

Featured in 1 Bible Heroes storybook, first appearing in 1 Samuel 17:1-51.
