Saul was (so many)✻ years old when he began to reign, and he had reigned for two years over Israel (1 Samuel 13, 1)
when he picked an army of three thousand men. Of these, two thousand were under his own command, around Machmas and the hill country of Bethel, and a thousand under Jonathan at Gabaa in Benjamin. The rest of the people he sent back to their homes. (1 Samuel 13, 2)
But now Jonathan overpowered the Philistine garrison at Gabaa, and news of it was brought to the Philistines; whereupon Saul sounded an alarm all through the country, Hebrews, here is news for you! (1 Samuel 13, 3)
So the word went round that Saul had overpowered a Philistine garrison, and Israel was at war with the Philistines; and they raised their battle-cry under Saul’s command at Galgala. (1 Samuel 13, 4)
there were Hebrews, too, that fled across Jordan into Gad and Galaad. As for Saul, he stood his ground at Galgala, but it was a dispirited army that followed him. (1 Samuel 13, 7)
Now thy dynasty shall fall with thee; the Lord has found a man to fulfil his purposes, and rule his people instead of thee; such is the reward of disobedience. (1 Samuel 13, 14)
With that, Samuel left him, returning from Galgala to Gabaa in Benjamin. From Galgala, too, Saul and the forces that remained with him went up to Gabaa and the hill-country of Benjamin, to meet the attack; when he counted the roll, there were only some six hundred men to be found in his company. (1 Samuel 13, 15)
There, at Gabaa, Saul and his son Jonathan encamped with their followers, while the Philistines confronted them at Machmas. (1 Samuel 13, 16)
and in times of battle Saul and his son Jonathan were the only men in the army that carried sword or lance.) (1 Samuel 13, 22)
And one day, Saul’s son Jonathan proposed to the lad who carried his armour for him, Let us attack the Philistine detachment over yonder; but he said no word of it to Saul. (1 Samuel 14, 1)
Saul was encamped on the outskirts of Gabaa, under the pomegranate tree at Magron, with some six hundred men under him; (1 Samuel 14, 2)
Looking out from Gabaa, the watchmen of Saul’s army wondered at the sight; so many men that lay slain, so many more in flight this way and that. (1 Samuel 14, 16)
