Assessment: WAEC SSCE - Christian Religious Studies - 1992 (Objective) Subject: Christian Religious Studies

Question 1 Report

which of the following best describes David's attitude to Abner's death?
Answer Details
David's attitude towards Abner's death was sincere shock and sorrow. Abner was a commander in Saul's army who later allied himself with David. However, Abner was killed by Joab, David's own commander, who had a personal vendetta against Abner. When David learned of Abner's death, he was deeply grieved and mourned publicly, even composing a lament for Abner. David's response to Abner's death was consistent with his character throughout the Bible. He is depicted as a man of deep emotions and empathy, who mourned the loss of even his enemies. In this case, David saw Abner as a valuable ally and a potential key to uniting the kingdom under his rule, and so his death was a great loss.
