Contextual Overview

8 On the morowe came the Philistynes to spoyle the slayne, and founde Saul, and his sonnes lyenge vpon mount Gelboa, 9 and stryped him out, and toke his heade, and his harnesse, and sent it aboute in to ye londe of the Philistynes, and caused it to be shewed before their Idoles and the people. 10 And his weapens layed they in the house of their god, and styckte vp his heade vpon the house of Dagon. 11 But whan all they of Iabes in Gilead herde of euery thinge, that the Philistynes had done vnto Saul, 12 they gat them vp (as many as were men of armes) and toke the body of Saul and of his sonnes, and broughte them vnto Iabes, and buryed their bones vnder the Oke at Iabes, and fasted seuen dayes. 13 Thus dyed Saul in his trespace which he commytted agaynst the LORDE, because he kepte not the worde of the LORDE: & because he axed councell at the soythsayer, 14 and axed not at the LORDE, therfore slewe he him, & turned the kyngdome vnto Dauid.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 10:11. When all Jabesh-gilead heard — For a general account of the principles of heroism and gratitude from which this action of the men of Jabesh-gilead proceeded, see the note on 1 Samuel 31:11-12.

By the kindness of a literary friend, I am enabled to lay a farther illustration of this noble act before the reader, which he will find at the conclusion of the chapter. 1 Chronicles 10:14.
