Contextual Overview

1 And Samuel sayd vnto al Israel: Beholde, I haue hearkened vnto your voyce in all that ye sayde vnto me, and haue made a king ouer you. 2 Nowe therfore, your king walketh before you: and I am olde and graye headed, and behold my sonnes are with you, & I haue walked before you from my childehod vnto this day. 3 Beholde here I am, beare recorde of me before the Lorde & before his annoynted: Whose oxe haue I taken? or whose asse haue I taken? whom haue I done wrong to? Whom haue I hurt? Or of whose hande haue I receaued any bribe, to blind myne eyes therwith? and I will restore it you. 4 They sayde: Thou hast done vs no wrong, nor hurt vs, neither hast thou taken ought of any mans hande. 5 He sayd vnto them againe: The Lord is witnesse against you, and his annoynted is witnesse this day, that ye haue found naught in my handes. And they aunswered: He is witnesse.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Samuel said unto all Israel,.... When assembled at Gilgal, after they had recognized Saul as their king, and he was established in the kingdom, and while in the midst of their mirth and joy:

behold, I have hearkened unto your voice in all that ye have said unto me; respecting the affair of a king, to which it must be limited, as appears by what follows; otherwise it is possible, in some things they might apply to him about, he did not think fit to hearken to them, and grant their request, or speak for them:

and have made a king over you; that is, had by the direction and appointment of God chosen one by lot, anointed and declared him king; for it was the Lord alone, that, properly speaking, made him a king.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XII

Samuel, grown old, testifies his integrity before the people,

which they confirm, 1-5.

He reproves them for their ingratitude and disobedience; and

gives a summary of the history of their fathers, 6-12.

He exhorts them to future obedience, and calls for a sign from

heaven to confirm his authority, and to show them their

disobedience: God sends an extraordinary thunder and rain,

13-19.

He warns them against idolatry, and exhorts to obedience, and

promises to intercede for them, 20-23.

Sums up their duty, and concludes with a solemn warning, 24, 25.
