The prime and unique contribution of this study lies in its meta-theoretical approach, which critically examines and discusses a widely employed method of analysis and interpretation regarding the books of Samuel. This discussion is of utmost importance and necessity, as interdisciplinary studies must transcend the mere application of individual theoreticians or theoretical concepts to new objects, which are solely evaluated based on their ability to generate new interpretations or solve problems (as observed by the historical-critical approach). Furthermore, it is crucial for an academic study to engage in a discussion about the validity of a particular theory or method. Moreover, it is equally significant that the theory is explored and tested in relation to narrative texts. Several questions are considered, such as whether the Bible texts exhibit forms that deviate from the frames that interpreters assume. What objectives and purposes do literary or narrative methods serve in the hands of biblical interpreters?

The primary objective of this study is to seek a deeper understanding of the biblical texts and their profound influence and meaning. By employing a meta-theoretical framework, the study aims to provide a comprehensive examination and evaluation of the widely used analytical and interpretive approaches to the books. This exploration is vital as interdisciplinary studies must go beyond the mere application of individual theorists or theoretical concepts to new objects, which are solely assessed based on their ability to generate new interpretations or solve problems (as observed by the historical-critical approach).

Several questions are considered, such as whether the Bible texts exhibit forms that deviate from the frames that interpreters assume. What objectives and purposes do literary or narrative methods serve in the hands of biblical interpreters?

In order to achieve this objective, the study employs a multi-faceted approach. It begins by reviewing the relevant literature and scholarly literature on the books. This review aims to identify the key concepts, theories, and methods employed in the analysis and interpretation of the books. By examining the strengths and weaknesses of these approaches, the study seeks to identify gaps.

The study then moves on to develop a theoretical framework that encompasses the key insights gained from the review. This framework serves as a foundation approach to analyzing and interpreting the books. It is based on the assumption that the Bible is a complex and multifaceted text that requires a multi-faceted approach to analysis. The framework incorporates various theoretical perspectives, including historical-critical, literary, and narrative approaches.

The study then applies the theoretical framework to the analysis of the books. It begins by examining the books. It begins by examining the historical-critical approach, which focuses on the historical context. It then moves on to the literary approach, which focuses on the literary and narrative aspects of the text. It then moves on to the narrative approach, which focuses on the narrative aspects of the text.

It then moves on to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the literary approach. It then moves on to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the narrative approach.
