En el siglo xi a.C. Saint Germain estuvo encarnado como el profeta Samuel. Fue un líder religioso sobresaliente en una época de gran apostasía, sirviendo como el último de los jueces de Israel y el primero de sus profetas. En aquellos tiempos los jueces no se limitaban a arbitrar disputas; eran líderes carismáticos de quienes se creía que tenían acceso directo a Dios y que podían convocar a las tribus de Israel contra los opresores. | |||
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of Abraham from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L<small>ORD</small> with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”<ref>I Sam. 7:3.</ref> The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L<small>ORD</small> to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel. | Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of Abraham from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle.
