According to Jewish tradition, the book was written by Samuel, with additions by the prophets Gad and Nathan; modern scholarly thinking is that the entire Deuteronomistic history was composed in the period c. 630--540 BC by combining a number of independent texts of various ages . </P> <P> Samuel begins with the prophet Samuel's birth and God's call to him as a boy . The story of the Ark of the Covenant that follows tells of Israel's oppression by the Philistines, which brought about Samuel's anointing of Saul as Israel's first king . But Saul proved unworthy and God's choice turned to David, who defeated Israel's enemies and brought the Ark to Jerusalem . God then promised David and his successors an everlasting dynasty . </P>
