Шаблон:AnchorThe threat of the Ammonites (11:1–3)

For this narrative, 4QSamШаблон:Sup (among the Dead Sea Scrolls; from first century BCE) and the writing of Josephus from first century CE, provide a background information that Nahash king of the Ammonites have subdued Israel's Transjordanian tribes (Gadites and Reubenites) and gouged the right eye of his captives (cf. 11:2 for explanation), but 7000 Israelites escaped and hid in Jabesh-Gilead, so now Nahash came to threaten the city.Шаблон:Sfn Significantly, Jabesh-Gilead was the only town refusing the call of arms in previous time (Judges 21), so now their chance of receiving help from other Israel tribes were slim, and that's probably why Nahash allowed them seven days to send messengers to try asking.Шаблон:Sfn Due to their prior refusal to join the call to arms, the people of Jabesh-Gilead were slaughtered by other tribes, except for 400 virgin girls who were left alive and given to be the wives of the survivors of the tribe of Benjamin (among 600 men) for a separate slaughter by the Israel tribes, so were it not for the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead, the tribe of Benjamin would be annihilated.Шаблон:Sfn

Verse 1

Then Nahash the Ammonite came up and encamped against Jabesh Gilead; and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, "Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you.""[4]
  • "Encamped": or "besieged".[5]
  • "Nahash king of Ammon": this name means "serpent" in Hebrew.[6]

Prior to the first word "Then..." 4QSamШаблон:Sup and Greek Septuagint texts have a phrase: "about a month later".Шаблон:Sfn Prior to the whole verse, 4QSamШаблон:Sup and Josephus (Antiquities 6.5.1. [68-71])[7] attest to an addition which explains Nahash's practice of enemy mutilation, and by so doing provides a smoother transition to the following paragraph than is found in the Masoretic Text,[8] or Greek Septuagint manuscripts.Шаблон:Sfn NRSV renders it as verse 10:27b as follows: "Now Nahash, king of the Ammonites, had been grievously oppressing the Gadites and the Reubenites. He would gouge out the right eye of each of them and would not grant Israel a deliverer. No one was left of the Israelites across the Jordan whose right eye Nahash, king of the Ammonites, had not gouged out. But there were 7,000 men who had escaped from the Ammonites and had entered Jabesh Gilead. About a month later, Nahash the Ammonite went up and besieged Jabesh Gilead."Шаблон:Sfn The variations may be explained as scribal errors due to homeoteleuton, in which case the scribe jumps from one word to another word with a similar ending later in the text. Comparing to the reading in 4QSamШаблон:Sup, NET Bible suggests that the scribe of the MT may have skipped from the phrase Шаблон:Lang-he, Шаблон:Transl, at the end of 1 Samuel 10:27, which should possibly be Шаблон:Lang-he, Шаблон:Transl, and picked up after the phrase Шаблон:Lang-he, Шаблон:Transl, "it happened about a month later...". 4QSamШаблон:Sup also contains a case of homeoteleuton in this passage, that the scribe first skipped from one case of Шаблон:Lang-he, Шаблон:Transl, "Gilead", to another, then inserted the missing 10 words between the lines of the 4QSamШаблон:Sup text.[8] The fact that the scribe made this type of mistake and was able to make corrections indicates that the person was copying from a source that had these verses in it.[8] Moreover, the 4QSamШаблон:Sup text first introduces Nahash with his full title, as the king of the Ammonites, which is considered the usual style.[9]

Verse 2

And Nahash the Ammonite answered them, "On this condition I will make a covenant with you, that I may put out all your right eyes, and bring reproach on all Israel."[10]
  • "Put out...right eyes": Josephus explains that without one's right eye and when the left eye was covered by a war shield, a soldier might be wholly useless in war.[7]

Шаблон:AnchorSaul defeated the Ammonites and rescued Jabesh Gilead (11:4–15)

When the messengers from Jabesh Gilead reached Saul's hometown, Gibeah, Saul was working as a farmer and only heard about the situation second hand, after witnessing the townpeople publicly weeping over the news.Шаблон:Sfn Unlike others, Saul became angry after hearing the message, and it is said that God's spirit who brought on his anger (11:6; cf. Judges 3:10; 6:34; 11:29; 13:25; especially Samson in 14:6, 19; 15:14).Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn The way Saul called the people to arms was by dismembering a pair of his oxen ("a yoke of oxen") and sending the pieces to all places in the territory of Israel (cf. Judges 19:29–30), with a message that the people who refused to respond would have a fate like that of the oxen.Шаблон:Sfn Saul's strategy and eventual victory was similar to that of former judges: by dividing the forces (cf. Judges 7) to surround the enemy camp and attacking in an early morning, but the attribution of the victory was to YHWH (verse 12).Шаблон:Sfn The victory proves Saul's worthiness of the kingship contrary to the words of his opponents (10:26), but those critics were spared according to Saul's own wish and Saul was acclaimed king once more at Gilgal.Шаблон:Sfn

Verse 15

And all the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal; and there they sacrificed sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.[11]
  • "And there they made Saul king": The Septuagint reads, "and Samuel anointed Saul king there," which is not improbable, as later David also had his original anointing by Samuel in front of his family (1 Samuel 16:12-13), then was twice publicly anointed, first as king of Judah (2 Samuel 2:4), and again as king over all Israel (2 Samuel 5:3), but this may be included in the word "made king" in Masoretic Text (see 1 Samuel 12:3, 1 Samuel 12:5).[12] Josephus records that it was Samuel who suggested the second ordination in Gilgal and anointed Saul there with the 'holy oil'.Шаблон:Efn
