1 Samuel 31:6 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and all his men, that same day together.

Ver. 6. And all his men, that same day together,] i.e., His household servants, his bodyguard, allies, and a great part of his army; so that of him might be sung that of Virgil concerning Priamus,

Hic finis Priami fatorum, hic exitus illum

Sorte tulit Troiam incensam et prolapsa videntem

Pergama, tot quondam populis terrisque superbum

Regnatorem Aside: iacet ingens littore truncus,

Avulsumque humeris caput, et sine nomine corpus. ”
