This chapter follows the major theme of I Samuel, contrasting David against Saul. David was the better king, after God's own heart, that Israel needed. David was a good leader while Saul was an evil leader. Saul was merciless while David was merciful. In these ways and more, David prefigures Jesus Christ. Jesus is the only perfect and merciful leader and savior who welcomes all who come to him in faith.
