1 Chronicles 10:1 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

The men of Israel fled, &c. — Thus princes sin and the people suffer for it. No doubt there was enough in them to deserve it. But that which divine justice had chiefly an eye to, was the sin of Saul. Great men should in an especial manner, take heed of provoking God's wrath. For if they kindle that fire, they know not how many may be consumed by it for their sakes.

1 Chronicles 10:1

1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slaina in mount Gilboa.
