2 Samuel 21:12

Took the bones of Saul - The reader will recollect that the men of Jabesh-gilead burned the bodies of Saul and his sons, and buried the remaining bones under a tree at Jabesh. See 1 Samuel 31:12 , 1 Samuel 31:13 . These David might have digged up again, in order to bury them in the family sepulcher.
