S1 Ep75 - 1 Samuel 14

In chapter 14, Jonathan (Saul's son) leads Israel on a victorious battle against the Philistines. However, he disobeys his father's directive not to eat anything until the end of the day. He sticks the edge of his spear into some delicious honey and eats it. Granted, the directive was foolish but he should have led by example. Instead, it served to undermine Saul's authority. They cast lots to determine who'd engaged in wrong behavior and, ultimately, it fell on Jonathan. That meant he was to be put to death. But Saul's people told him not do, so he didn't. 

Saul's poor leadership in this chapter sets the stage for the next chapter.
