The following history of Saul is given by the Afghans, a
people generally supposed to be of Jewish origin: "In a war
which raged between the children of Israel and the Amalekites,
the latter being victorious, plundered the Jews, and obtained
possession of the ark of the covenant. Considering this [as]
the God of the Jews, they threw it into the fire, which did
not affect it. They afterwards attempted to cleave it with
axes, but without success: every individual who treated it
with indignity, was punished for his temerity. They then
placed it in their temple; but all their idols bowed to it.
At length they fastened it upon a cow, which they turned loose
in the wilderness. When the prophet Samuel arose, the
children of Israel said to him, 'We have been totally subdued
by the Amalekites, and have no king. Raise to us a king, that
we may be enabled to contend for the glory of God.' Samuel
said, 'In case you are led out to battle, are you determined
to fight?' They answered, 'What has befallen us, that we
should not fight against infidels? That nation has banished
us from our country and children.' At this time the angel
Gabriel descended, and delivering a wand, said, 'It is the
command of God, that the person whose stature shall correspond
with this wand, shall be king of Israel.' Melec Tl£t was at
that time a man of inferior condition, and performed the
humble employment of feeding the goats and cows of others.
One day, a cow under his charge was accidentally lost. Being
disappointed in his searches, he was greatly distressed, and
applied to Samuel saying, 'I have lost a cow, and I do not
possess the means of satisfying the owner. Pray for me that I
may be extricated from this difficulty.' Samuel perceiving
that he was a man of lofty stature, asked his name. He
answered, Tl£t. Samuel then said, 'Measure Tl£t with the
wand which the angel Gabriel brought.' His stature was equal
to it. Samuel then said, 'God has raised Tl£t to be your
king.' The children of Israel answered, 'We are greater than
our king. We are men of dignity, and he is of inferior
condition. How shall he be our king?' Samuel informed them,
they should know that God had constituted Tl£t king, by his
restoring the ark of the covenant. He accordingly restored
it, and they acknowledged him their sovereign." Asiatic
