Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 1 is found in chapter 31 of 1 Samuel. The battle of Mount Gilboa ends with a decisive defeat for Israel. Jonathan and other sons of Saul die, and Saul is severely wounded. Realizing that he will be captured, he asks his armor-bearer to kill him, but the man refuses. Finally Saul falls on his own sword. The king’s death and the deaths of his sons represent the fulfillment of earlier warnings. The tragedy is not presented as David’s personal victory, but as the outcome of Saul’s failure and Israel’s defeat.
