Imagine you have a best friend, and your dad is thinking about not letting you play with them. But your best friend has always been really nice to your dad and never done anything bad. You would tell your dad, 'Don't be mean to my friend, they are good.' That's what Jonathan is doing for David with his dad, Saul.
