10 And it happened on the next day that the distressing spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied inside the house. So David played music with his hand as at other times; but there was a spear in Saul's hand 11 And Saul cast the spear for he said for "I will pin David to the wall!" But David escaped his presence twice.

Welcome! This question (or one very similar to it) has already been asked, so this one may be closed as a duplicate. I hope you'll take a minute to take the [tour] and learn how this site is different from others. – Nathaniel is protesting Jan 27 '17 at 04:31
@Nathaniel No answer was accepted for that question and it was closed as opinion-based. Can this question be narrowed so that an answer can be accepted? – Cannabijoy Jan 28 '17 at 05:23
@anonymouswho Yes of course, that's a fine approach as well. Gerhardt, if there is a particular Christian tradition whose view you would like, you could mention that here to potentially get the question reopened. – Nathaniel is protesting Jan 29 '17 at 00:26
