1 Samuel 28:5 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 28:5

And when Saul saw the host of the Philistines
From the mountains of Gilboa, where he had pitched his camp:

he was afraid, and his heart greatly trembled;
on sight of the numbers of them, and thinking perhaps of the death of Samuel, and of the loss of David; who was now among the Philistines, and might possibly fight against him, and for the Philistines, of which he might be informed; however, he was not with him, and his conscience might accuse him of various sins he had been guilty of, for which he might fear the Lord would now reckon with him.

1 Samuel 28:5 In-Context

3 Samuel já havia morrido, e todo o Israel o havia pranteado e sepultado em Ramá, sua cidade natal. Saul havia expulsado do país os médiuns e os que consultavam espíritos.

4 Depois que os filisteus se reuniram, vieram e acamparam em Suném, enquanto Saul reunia todos os israelitas e acampava em Gilboa.

5 Quando Saul viu o acampamento filisteu, teve medo; ficou apavorado.

6 Ele consultou o SENHOR, mas este não lhe respondeu nem por sonhos, nem por Urim, nem por profetas.

7 Então Saul disse aos seus auxiliares: “Procurem uma mulher que invoca espíritos, para que eu a consulte”.Eles disseram: “Existe uma em En-Dor”.
