At the very time Samuel was offering the sacrifice, the Philistines launched an attack against Israel. But Yahweh's voice thundered loudly in the midst of the Philistines; they were suddenly confused and defeated by Israel. (1 Samuel 7, 10)
After this defeat, the Philistines did not dare enter the territory of Israel and Yahweh held them in check for as long as Samuel lived. (1 Samuel 7, 13)
The Israelites recovered the towns from Ekron to Gath which the Philistines had seized from Israel. Israel rescued their territories. And there was peace, even between the Israelites and the Amorites. (1 Samuel 7, 14)
Samuel was judge in Israel for the rest of his life. (1 Samuel 7, 15)
Every year he went around to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah and judged Israel in all these places. (1 Samuel 7, 16)
After that he returned to Ramah for his home was there. There he judged Israel and there he built an altar to Yahweh. (1 Samuel 7, 17)
When Samuel grew old, he made his sons judges over Israel. (1 Samuel 8, 1)

(Formerly, people in Israel who went to consult God, would say, "Come, let us go to the seer," for they did not speak of prophets, but of seers.) (1 Samuel 9, 9)
"Tomorrow, about this time, I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin and you shall anoint him to rule over my people Israel. He shall save my people from the hand of the Philistines for I have seen the affliction of my people and their cry has come to me." (1 Samuel 9, 16)
As for your asses that were lost three days ago, do not worry about them for they have been found." Samuel added, "For whom is the first place in Israel? Isn't it for you and for all your father's kin?" (1 Samuel 9, 20)
Saul answered, "I am a Benjaminite, from the least of the tribes of Israel, and my family is the lowliest of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin. Why do you speak to me in this way?" (1 Samuel 9, 21)
