Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 10:6

6. Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house—his sons and courtiers who were there engaged in the battle. But it appears that Ish-bosheth and Mephibosheth were kept at Gibeah on account of their youth. :-. THE PHILISTINES TRIUMPH OVER HIM. read more

A. The Death of Saul ch. 10"Having established the remnant’s genealogical link with the Davidic and priestly lines, he [the writer] focused on the groundwork of the Davidic promises. His design was to show how the kingly and priestly concerns came together in David. David is then seen as a model for the postexilic community as they look forward to One like David." [Note: Townsend, p. 286.] Chapter 10 is an almost verbatim repetition of Saul’s defeat as the writer of Samuel recorded it in 1... read more

II. THE REIGN OF DAVID CHS. 10-29In all of Chronicles the writer assumed his readers’ acquaintance with the other Old Testament historical books. This is especially true regarding what Samuel and Kings contain. These books, or at least the information in them, appears to have been well known by the returning exiles."The reigns of Saul, David and Solomon over a united Israel are central to the concerns of the Chronicler, about half his narrative material being devoted to these three kings alone.... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 10:1-14

Saul’s Overthrow and DeathThis chapter is abbreviated from 1 Samuel 31:1-13, but supplements it by statements that Saul’s head was fastened in the temple of Dagon, and by a brief explanation of the causes of his overthrow.6. All his house] This cannot mean ’all his family,’ since Ish-bosheth and others of his children survived him (2 Samuel 2:8; 2 Samuel 21:8), but must refer to those of his household who attended him at Gilboa. 13. His transgression] The writer refers to what is related in 1... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 1 Chronicles 10:6

(6) And all his house died together.—Instead of this Samuel reads “and his armour-bearer; also all his men on that day together.” The LXX. adds “on that day” here, while in Samuel it omits “all his men,” thus minimising the differences of text. It is mere pedantry to press the phrases “all his men,” “all his house.” The strength of these expressions indicates the completeness of the overthrow.The chronicler was fully aware that some of Saul’s house were not engaged in this battle (1 Chronicles... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 1 Chronicles 10:7

(7) That were in the valley.—Rather, the plain, in which the main battle was fought—that of Jezreel. Samuel has “that were on the other side of the plain, and on the other side of the Jordan.” The curt phrase “who (dwelt) in the plain,” may be compared with 1 Chronicles 9:2. The people of the surrounding districts are meant; who, when they “saw that they” (viz., Saul’s army, “the men of Israel,” Samuel) “fled,” or had been routed, deserted “their (Samuel, ‘the,’ perhaps a transposition of... read more

II. THE OVERTHROW AND END OF SAUL CHAPTER 10 1. The overthrow and death of Saul (1 Chronicles 10:1-7 ) 2. The burial of Saul and his sons (1 Chronicles 10:8-12 ) 3. The cause of Saul’s failure (1 Chronicles 10:13-14 ) 1 Samuel 31:0 contains the same record of Saul’s miserable end and trial. The writer of Chronicles uses the departure of Saul to introduce the history of the king after God’s own heart, why God had dealt with Saul in judgment, and that the kingdom was turned unto David,... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 10:1-14

DAVID ’S REIGN THE DOWNFALL OF SAUL (1 Chronicles 10:0 ) In reading this chapter with whose general contents we became familiar in 1 Samuel 31:0 , it is important to note the inspired comment at its close (1 Chronicles 10:13-14 ). DAVID’S HEROES (1 Chronicles 11-12) In the history of David in this book, the writer dwells chiefly on its prosperous side, passing over the rest as lightly as possible. His anointing at Hebron (1 Chronicles 11:1-3 ) reveals nothing of what we learned earlier of... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - 1 Chronicles 10:1-14

Life a Battlefield 1 Chronicles 10:0 WE now come to a portion of the history which is so clearly a repetition that we need not follow it in all its well-known detail. Having already treated nearly the whole of the matter at some length, it will be sufficient now to rest at a point here and there which will enable us to fill in some practical and suggestive instruction. Let it be understood however that what we are about to do is rather of the nature of indication than of exposition. The... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Chronicles 10:1-7

I shall desire the Reader once for all, while over going such parts in the book of the Chronicles as we have already reviewed in the former books of Samuel or the Kings, to consult what hath been already offered in that part of our humble Commentary. It would swell this little work unnecessarily to enlarge upon such portions as are only the duplicates of the history. Whatever opens to a new thought, or affords, a new occasion to spiritualize the passage, in such instances I shall beg to detain... read more
