Because she was not a virgin bride and the genealogy would be confused by using a different title, she is called Nabal's widow, who later married David. Does that make sense?
David's wives so far:
Michal, Saul's daughter and first wife of David
Abigail, Nabal's widow, and the second wife of David
Ahinoam the Jezreelites, and the third wife of David
One can assume the other two brides were virgins at the time of marriage.
The Holy Spirit is your Teacher. He helps us understand Biblical truths.
The gift of speaking in tongues that continues throughout church history and is so widespread today is the Holy Spirit-prompted ability to pray and praise God in a heavenly dialect, possibly even an angelic language that is not related to anything spoken on earth such as German or Swahili or Mandarin or English. The Holy Spirit personally crafts or creates a special and unique language that enables a Christian to speak to God in prayer, praise, and thanksgiving. This gift is not a human language that one might encounter in some foreign country, but a Spirit-empowered capacity to speak meaningful words that are only understood by the Godhead: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (unless, of course, God provides the interpretation through the one speaking or through another believer.
The more you learn about the Holy Spirit's ministry to you, the more you will desire all that He has purposed for you. 1 Corinthians 12, teaches about all the gifts
(for believers). He knows where you are in your walk with God, and He will wait until you understand and desire His gifts. You should talk to Him and ask Him any questions about what you are learning through scripture. He responds to us through OUR inner spirit, where He indwells. His is the still small voice.
If you ever hear something that frightens you; that's the devil trying to prevent you from following Jesus. Just say: I rebuke you, satan, in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth! Get thee hence.

Hope this helps.
I greet you in name Our Lord Jesus Christ. Hope you're well.
I am a new Christian, I gave my life to Our Lord nearly 2 years ago and it's been the best thing I have ever done. I've had joy and peace in my life since then.
I was baptised many years ago, but because of my immaturity I went back to sin.
The answer to your question " how to get closer to The Messiah " First of all the bible says " For whoever shall call in the name of the Lord shall be saved" Rom 10:13
Believe, that God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, the Messiah, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Then you have to be baptised.
Acts 2:38 Peter said, Repent, and be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of our sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
A few more scriptures for you to look at:
Ephesians 2:8-9
2 Timothy 2:15
1 John 1:9
Romans 6:23
1 John 5:13
Mark 16:16
Romans 10:9-10
Hope these scriptures will help and give you a good start to getting closer to Jesus Christ our Saviour.
God Bless you, and I will pray Trevor that you will get the wisdom & knowledge for God's Words.
Mark 16:15-20 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
That all a part of the works trip religion?
Don't stop reading the Bible, Stan, for Peter says if you rest the scriptures you rest them to your own condemnation.
The more you read, the clearer it becomes. The more you don't read, the less clear it becomes.
Let's look at what the Spirit tells us about baptism in the scriptures:
1 Peter 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
"... even baptism doth now save us." I can't see how much clearer that could be said.
But let's keep going:
Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
The chosen, live their lives pleasing to God, they know what awaits them after this earthly life. Therefore, they want others to know about this heavenly kingdom which, surpasses all imagination according to the holy scriptures. In order to enter into the kingdom, it's like a spiritual passport given, in it there is faith, repentance, baptism, love and obedience to the word of God.
It is written, "If you love me, keep my commandments." In this spiritual passport, there is a connection of our spirit with the Lord's spirit, this is an overwhelming blessing. There's also, knowledge and virtue added to this wonderful gift. Amen.
My doctor said Organic Blue Agave is low glycemic. It tastes good. I only use white sugar to make tomato sauce less acidic; some gassy raw veggies :)
That's why in mark 16:15 Christ told his disciples to spend the news to the world
