And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and pitched in Shunem: and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they pitched in Gilboa.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 28 of 1 Samuel. The Philistines prepare for a major battle and Achish includes David in his army. Saul becomes afraid when he sees the enemy army and consults the Lord, but receives no answer through dreams, priests, or prophets. The divine silence has decisive narrative significance: the king who previously rejected prophetic word now seeks guidance when facing a crisis. The lack of response reveals the depth of the rupture between Saul and God and prepares his desperate decision to seek a medium.
