1 Samuel chapter 15 is disturbing for what God commands here. (For a sermon just on this difficulty, see this sermon (below)
But this chapter presents another difficulty: If God is all-knowing, does he have regret? In verse 11, God says he has regret over making Saul the king. In verse 29, Samuel says God does not regret. Does the Bible contradict itself here, or is there something bigger going on?
