**it came to pass upon a day:** or, there was a day
**Jonathan:** [1 Samuel 14:39-45](../../../kjv/1-samuel/14/39-45), [1 Samuel 13:2](../../../kjv/1-samuel/13/2), [1 Samuel 13:22](../../../kjv/1-samuel/13/22), [1 Samuel 18:1-4](../../../kjv/1-samuel/18/1-4), [2 Samuel 1:4](../../../kjv/2-samuel/1/4), [2 Samuel 1:5](../../../kjv/2-samuel/1/5), [2 Samuel 1:25](../../../kjv/2-samuel/1/25), [2 Samuel 1:26](../../../kjv/2-samuel/1/26)
**he told not:** [1 Samuel 25:19](../../../kjv/1-samuel/25/19), [Judges 6:27](../../../kjv/judges/6/27), [Judges 14:6](../../../kjv/judges/14/6), [Micah 7:5](../../../kjv/micah/7/5)
**Reciprocal:** [Genesis 49:27](../../../kjv/genesis/49/27) - a wolf [1 Samuel 13:3](../../../kjv/1-samuel/13/3) - the garrison [1 Samuel 13:23](../../../kjv/1-samuel/13/23) - passage [1 Samuel 31:2](../../../kjv/1-samuel/31/2) - Jonathan [2 Samuel 8:6](../../../kjv/2-samuel/8/6) - garrisons [2 Samuel 23:14](../../../kjv/2-samuel/23/14) - garrison [1 Chronicles 9:39](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/9/39) - and Saul [1 Chronicles 18:13](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/18/13) - garrisons

**in the uttermost:** [1 Samuel 13:15](../../../kjv/1-samuel/13/15), [1 Samuel 13:16](../../../kjv/1-samuel/13/16), [Isaiah 10:28](../../../kjv/isaiah/10/28), [Isaiah 10:29](../../../kjv/isaiah/10/29)
**a pomegranate:** The word rimmon, in Arabic romman, whence the Portuguese romaa, denotes the pomegranate, both tree and fruit; called by naturalists malus punica or malo-granatum. It is, according to the Linnean system, a genus of the icosandria monogynia class of plants; and is a low tree, growing very common in Palestine, and other parts of the East. It has several small angular boughs, very thick and bushy, covered with a reddish bark, and some of them armed with sharp thorns. They are garnished with small, narrow, spear-shaped leaves, like those of the myrtle, but not so sharp, of a green colour, inclining to red. Its blossoms are large, beautiful, of an elegant red colour, inclining to purple, composed of several stalks resembling a rose, in the hollow of the cup: this cup is oblong, hard, purple, having a figure somewhat like that of a bell. It is chiefly valued for its fruit, which is exceedingly beautiful, of the form and size of a large apple, with a reddish rind, and red within; being full of small kernels, with red grains, replenished with a generous liquor, of which, Sir John Chardin informs us, they still make considerable quantities of wine in the East, particularly in Persia. But as the pomegranate tree, from its low growth, is but little adapted for pitching a tent under, it is probable that Rimmon here is the name of the rock mentioned in [Judges 20:45](../../../kjv/judges/20/45).

**Come:** This action of Jonathan's was totally contrary to the laws of war; no military operation should be undertaken without the knowledge and command of the general. But it is highly probable, that this gallant man was led to undertake the hazardous enterprise by an immediate divine impulse; and by the same influence was kept from informing the soldiers, and even from consulting his father, who might have opposed his design.

"Bring hither the ephod; for he bore the ephod on that day before Israel," which Houbigant and others think is the true reading. Finding that his son Jonathan and his armour-bearer were absent, Saul wished to consult the high-priest; but the tumult increasing, he says to him, "Withdraw thine hand:" i.e., desist form consulting the ephod on the present occasion, and immediately hastened to make the best use he could of this astonishing victory.

**the Hebrews:** Probably such as they held in bondage, or who were their servants. Instead of (haivrim) "the Hebrews," the LXX evidently read haavdim, for they have ןי הןץכןי, "the slaves;" but this reading is not countenanced by any other version, nor by any manuscript [1 Samuel 29:4](../../../kjv/1-samuel/29/4), [Judges 7:23](../../../kjv/judges/7/23)

**the people:** The people having abstained from food the whole of the day, and being now faint through hunger and fatigue, they flew upon the cattle, and not taking time to bleed them properly, they eagerly devoured the flesh with the blood, directly contrary to the law - another bad effect of Saul's rash adjuration.

**built:** It is probable that Saul converted the great stone, on which the cattle had been slaughtered, into an altar, on which sacrifices were offered, before the people attempted to proceed any further. This we are told was the first he had built. Samuel, as a prophet and priest, had hitherto erected the altars, but Saul seems to have thought he had sufficient authority to erect one himself, without the prophet, as he had once offered sacrifice without him.

Et dixit Saul ad Dominum Deum Israel; Domine Deus Israel da indicium: quid est quod non responderis servo tuo hodie? Si in me, aut in Jonatha filio meo est iniquitas hec, da ostensionem. Aut si hec iniquitas est in populo tuo, da sanctitatem, etc.
"And Saul said (to the Lord God of Israel, Vulg.) Lord God of Israel (give a sign, Vulg.). Why is it that thou has not answered thy servant today? If the iniquity be in me, or in my son Jonathan, (O Lord God of Israel, LXX) make it manifest; and if thou say thus, give to thy people Israel, give mercy," etc., (but Vulg. Or, if this iniquity be in thy people, give sanctification," etc.)
