For more details on reading 1 Samuel in light of Genesis, Peter Leithart’s A Son to Me: An Exposition of 1-2 Samuel is the place to start. Dale Ralph Davis’ 1 Samuel: Looking on The Heart is an excellent resource as well (as is his book on 2 Samuel). For big picture overview and some helpful background information, we would recommend the chapter on 1-2 Samuel in A Biblical-Theological Introduction to the Old Testament: The Gospel Promised. And for a helpful visual overview, check out the Bible Project video: https://youtu.be/QJOju5Dw0V0
