Jesse said to David his son, “Now take for your brothers an ephah of this parched grain and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to your brothers; 18 and bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand; and see how your brothers are doing, and bring back news.” 19 Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines. 20 David rose up early in the morning and left the sheep with a keeper, and took the provisions and went, as Jesse had commanded him.

1 Samuel 17:17-20 (WEB)

This biblical example refers to King David's obedience to his father. This act of obedience led David to the battlefront, where he achieved his renowned victory over Goliath. At that time, Israel was at war with the Philistines, and King Saul reigned over Israel. Although David had not yet taken the throne, he had already been anointed king by YHWH through the prophet Samuel.

• This is a biblical example of the Keep Sabbath Law being disobeyed.

While the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. 33 Those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation. 34 They put him in custody, because it had not been declared what should be done to him.

35 YHWH said to Moses, “The man shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him with stones outside of the camp.” 36 All the congregation brought him outside of the camp, and stoned him to death with stones, as YHWH commanded Moses.
