1 Samuel 31:9 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 31:9

And they cut off his head
And fastened it in the temple of Dagon, ( 1 Chronicles 10:10 ) ; perhaps that which was at Ashdod, one of the principalities of the Philistines, ( 1 Samuel 5:1 1 Samuel 5:2 ) ;

and stripped off his armour;
or vessels F8, his clothes as well as his armour, and what he had about him; as for his crown on his head, and the bracelet on his arm, the Amalekite took them before the Philistines came, ( 2 Samuel 1:10 ) ;

and sent into the land of the Philistines round about:
not his head and his armour, for they were placed in the temple of their idols; unless we can suppose these were first carried about for show, and as proofs of the victory: but rather messengers, who were sent express with the news,

to publish [it in] the house of their idols, and among the people;
that so they might be glad and rejoice, and give praise to their idols, to whom they ascribed the success they had.

8 Al otro dĂ­a, cuando los filisteos llegaron para despojar a los cadĂĄveres, encontraron a SaĂșl y a sus hijos muertos en el monte Guilboa.
9 Entonces lo decapitaron, le quitaron las armas, y enviaron mensajeros por todo el paĂ­s filisteo para que proclamaran la noticia en el templo de sus Ă­dolos y ante todo el pueblo.
10 Sus armas las depositaron en el templo de la diosa Astarté, y su cadåver lo colgaron en el muro de Betsån.
11 Cuando los habitantes de JabĂ©s de Galaad se enteraron de lo que habĂ­an hecho los filisteos con SaĂșl,
