The Bible is full of betrayals.  Joseph is betrayed by his brothers in the Old Testament.  Jesus is betrayed by Judas in the New Testament and there are many more instances of broken relationships due to betrayal in between Genesis and John.  In this lesson, we challenge our thinking through a less popular character through the account of Ahithophel’s betrayal of David.
