And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and spoil them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever seemeth good unto thee. Then said the priest, Let us draw near hither unto God.

Verse 36 is found in chapter 14 of 1 Samuel. Saul attempts to consult God but receives no answer. By attributing the silence to a sin committed during the day, he uses a lot to establish that Jonathan is responsible for having eaten. The people intervene and prevent Saul from executing his own son. The scene reveals a contradiction in Saul’s leadership: his concern for fulfilling an oath threatens the life of the very person who contributed decisively to the victory. The episode deepens the contrast between external obedience and spiritual discernment.
