He rejected the advice of the elders Proverbs 18:23The poor man pleads for mercy, but the rich man answers harshly.Genesis 42:30“The man who is lord of the land spoke harshly to us and accused us of spying on the country.1 Samuel 25:14Meanwhile, one of Nabal’s young men informed Nabal’s wife Abigail, “Look, David sent messengers from the wilderness to greet our master, but he scolded them.1 Samuel 25:17Now consider carefully what you must do, because disaster looms over our master and all his household. For he is such a scoundrel that nobody can speak to him!”1 Samuel 25:10But Nabal asked them, “Who is David? Who is this son of Jesse?
