There are four references to men named Saul in the Old Testament, from Genesis 36:37-Isaiah 10:29. The name Saul means "desired" or "asked for." 1) The most famous: a descendant from the tribe of Benjamin, son of Kish, and the 1st king of Israel. David was the choice of GOD for the first king of Israel but the people rejected GOD to be like the other nations, 1 Samuel 8:4-22. The entire account of Saul is recorded in 1 Samuel 9-1 Samuel 31:12. 2) An early king of Edom and a successor of Samlah. 3) A son of Simeon, a Patriarch of Israel. 4) a Levite, son of Uzziah, 1 Chronicles 6:24.
In the New Testament, this was the Hebrew name of the Great Apostle Paul which means "small" or "little" which coincided with his humble personality. Paul was his Gentile name and he became the Greatest Missionary and revealed the True Nature of the Meaning of the New Covenant which is CHRIST and the Finished Work of the Cross. The account of Paul is found in Acts 9-28 and his 14 Epistles: Romans-Hebrews.

Saul was tall and handsome and had won many battles. I'm in 6th grade and where learning about the kingdom of Israel. Saul didn't exactly play a big factor in Israel but was important for defeating the Israelites' enemies battle after battle. However according to the Hebrew Bible, their king, meaning Saul, displeased God then by disobeying some of his commandments. God then chose another King and instructed Samuel to anoint him in secret. The new king was a young shepherd named David. To get more info read the Bible.
