Contextual Overview
1The Philistines fought against Israel, and Israel’s men fled from them. Many were killed on Mount Gilboa. 2The Philistines pursued Saul and his sons and killed his sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua. 3When the battle intensified against Saul, the archers spotted him and severely wounded him. 4Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and run me through with it, or these uncircumcised men will come and torture me.” But his armor-bearer would not do it because he was terrified. Then Saul took his sword and fell on it. 5When his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his own sword and died. 6So Saul and his three sons died—his whole house died together. 7When all the men of Israel in the valley saw that the army had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled. So the Philistines came and settled in them.
