Contextual Overview

³⁶Then Saul said, "Let us go down after the Philistines by night and take spoil among them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them." And they said, "Do whatever seems good in your eyes." So the priest said, "Let us draw near to God here." ³⁷And Saul asked of God, "Shall I go down after the Philistines? Will You give them into the hand of Israel?" But He did not answer him on that day. ³⁸And Saul said, "Draw near here, all you chiefs of the people, and know and see how this sin has happened today. ³⁹For as Yahweh lives, who saves Israel, though it is in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die." But not one of all the people answered him. ⁴⁰Then he said to all Israel, "You shall be on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side." And the people said to Saul, "Do what seems good in your eyes." ⁴¹Therefore, Saul said to Yahweh, the God of Israel, "Give a perfect lot." And Jonathan and Saul were taken, but the people escaped. ⁴²And Saul said, "Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son." And Jonathan was taken. ⁴³Then Saul said to Jonathan, "Tell me what you have done." So Jonathan told him and said, "I indeed tasted a little honey with the end of the staff that was in my hand. Here I am; I must die!" ⁴⁴And Saul said, "May God do this to me and more also, for you shall surely die, Jonathan." ⁴⁵But the people said to Saul, "Must Jonathan die, who has brought about this great salvation in Israel? Far from it! As Yahweh lives, not one hair of his head shall fall to the ground, for he has worked with God this day." So the people redeemed Jonathan, and he did not die.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then Saul went up from following the Philistines,.... Returned home to his own city, finding that he could get no answer from the Lord, whether he should pursue further or not, and losing the time and opportunity of doing it, by examining into the affair of his son, and casting lots to find it out:

and the Philistines went to their own place; their country and cities, such of them as remained, who were not cut off by their own and the sword of the Israelites. Josephus n says, Saul killed about 60,000 of them. It seems to be the will of God that they should not now be utterly destroyed, that they might be a rod of correction in his hand, to chastise the people of Israel hereafter.

n Antiqu. l. 6. c. 6. sect. 5.
