1Samuel 22-24; Luke 16:1-18. David continues his run from Saul. He takes his parents to Moab. He delivers a town from the Philistines. He hides in a cave and then Saul enters to relieve himself. David cuts a piece of Saul's robe while he's in the cave. Afterwards he reveals to Saul what he had done. He vows loyalty to Saul. Saul returns and David still stays in exile.
Jesus tells the parable of a manager about to be fired who reduces the debts of his master's debtors in order to be received by them when he's fired. The master praises the unrighteous manager for his shrewdness. So does Jesus. We should use earthly wealth to secure spiritual friends. Jesus told this parable because the Pharisees were lovers of money. What does divorce have to do with this context?
