There is a Psalm that says woe is from the LORD. I find a big contrast between Jesus saying ‘love your enemies’ with the LORD sending an evil spirit to Saul in 1 Samuel 16:14, 18:10, 19:9 (NSRV).
I’ve heard this metaphorically indicates Saul had mental illness but I’m not reading these verses as figurative. What do you make of this and how do you harmonize these verses with Jesus’ words?
