Dear Librarian, Abigail's story is one of tragedy, heartache, and hope. Like many women of her time, her parents likely arranged her first marriage when she was young to a man they hoped would provide well for her. But she soon learned that material wealth did not equal love and marriage alone would not change a man. Learning to cope was easier than trying to get her husband to become the man she hoped he'd be. Her second marriage brought heartache of a different kind. Though David was far better than Nabal, she was still forced to share him with an increasing number of wives. In the end, she must learn the price of peace, to accept what she could not change, but learn to bring about what change she could – in herself and in those she loved.
