Contextual Overview
1 Now the P'lishtim pressed their attack on Isra'el; and the men of Isra'el fled before the P'lishtim, leaving their dead on Mount Gilboa. 2 The P'lishtim pursued Sha'ul; overtook him and his sons; and the P'lishtim killed Y'honatan, Avinadav and Malkishua, the sons of Sha'ul. 3 The fighting went hard against Sha'ul; then the archers overtook and wounded him, so that he was in agony. 4 Sha'ul said to his armor-bearer, "Draw your sword and run me through with it. Otherwise, these uncircumcised men will come and make sport of me." But his armor-bearer refused; he was too frightened. So Sha'ul took his sword and fell on it. 5 When his armor-bearer saw that Sha'ul was dead, he too fell on his own sword and died. 6 Thus Sha'ul, his three sons and all his household died together. 7 When all the men of Isra'el who were in the valley saw them fleeing and that Sha'ul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled; then the P'lishtim came and lived in them.
