Nabal was a very wealthy man and an ungrateful jerk. Everyone knew David was the next king of Israel and that, despite the violent opposition of King Saul, he was doing his best to keep the frontiers safe from marauders. His men had kept Nabal's herds and shepherds safe from brigands all year long. At sheering time, David sent a few men to ask for some token of support, a little food to keep his fighters going.

Nabal repaid David's kindness with insults, and his next encounter with the king-to-be would have been fatal if his loyal wife, Abigail hadn't intervened. She pleaded with David on behalf of her worthless husband and his children. David relented, but God didn't. God repaid Nabal's ingratitude with a fatal stroke.

Remember Nabal and show a little gratitude for the good deeds others do for you, even if unsolicited.
