戴维与非利士人打仗回来，百姓呼喊他的名，称赞他英勇。撒乌耳听见这声音，就恼怒起来，想要杀戴维，因为他看见戴维是百姓中最受喜爱的，并且害怕他去追求王位。幸运的是，撒乌耳的儿子乔纳森告诉戴维他父亲的计划，于是戴维逃离了撒乌耳，从一个地方逃到另一个地方躲避撒乌耳的愤怒。戴维躲在山洞里隐基底，撒乌耳来“解手”，所以戴维就切断了他的一件披风。戴维因向撒乌耳这样做而感到内疚，“耶和华禁止我向我的主，耶和华的受膏者这样行，我必向他举起手来，因为他是耶和华的受膏者”（我塞缪尔24）。7）。他不是杀害撒乌耳，而是因为他是弥赛亚，他被上帝拣选了。戴维觉得他不能给撒乌耳带来伤害，因为他会使主不安。尽管撒乌耳侮辱戴维，持续威胁着他的生命，戴维把自己的骄傲放在一边，不杀撒乌耳为神的缘故。相反，当阿基里斯被要求放下自己的骄傲为战友他不愿意这样做的缘故，因为阿伽门农抢走了他的战利品，并声称她是布里塞伊斯他自己。这是一个攻击阿基里斯为阿伽门农不仅带走了他的奖杯，但他的提姆ê，Â也称为荣。这种羞辱阿基里斯，因为阿伽门农继续侮辱他，诋毁他的战争努力，阿基里斯则质疑，“他应该画长的锋利的剑挂在他的臀部，推力的行列并杀死阿伽门农的吗？”（伊利亚特、显微镜观察71-72）。如果自由神弥涅尔瓦没有来自奥林巴斯冷静在阿基里斯心中的愤怒，他会杀了阿伽门农。阿基里斯，他的骄傲远大于阿伽门农的生命，他愿意无论职务杀他。
新西兰泰普迪尼理工学院代写:耶和华的受膏者
When David returned from war with the Philistines, the people chanted his name and praised him for his bravery. Saul, hearing this, became angry and sought out to kill David as he saw that David was a favorite among the people and feared that he would go after his crown. Fortunately, Saul's son, Jonathan, told David of his father's plan, so David escaped from Saul and fled from one place to another to hide from the wrath of Saul. As David was hiding in the cave of En-gedi, Saul came in to "relieve himself", so David went and cut off a piece of his cloak. David then felt guilty for doing so to Saul, " The Lord forbid I should do such a thing to my lord- the Lord's anointed- that I should raise my hand against him; for he is the Lord's anointed" (I Samuel 24. 7). Rather than killing Saul, he spares him because he is the Messiah, he was chosen by God. David feels as if he can not bring harm to Saul because then he would upset the Lord. Even though Saul insults David and continuously threatens his life, David puts his pride aside and does not kill Saul for the sake of God.In contrast when Achilles was asked to put aside his pride for the sake of his comrades he was not willing to do so, for Agamemnon stole his war prize, Briseis and claimed her as his own. This was an attack towards Achilles as Agamemnon not only took away his trophy but his timê, also known as honor. This humiliated Achilles, as Agamemnon continued to insult him and discredit his war efforts, Achilles then questioned "Should he draw the long sharp sword slung at his hip, thrust through the ranks and kill Agamemnon now?" (The Iliad I. 224-225). If Athena had not come down from Olympus to calm the fury in the heart of Achilles, he would have killed Agamemnon. To Achilles, his pride was far greater than the life of Agamemnon, as he was willing to kill him regardless of his position.
