VERSE 1
- A.M. 2941. B.C. 1063. An. Ex. Is. 428. How long.
* 1Sa 15:11,35 Jer 7:16; 11:14

VERSE 2
- How can I go.
* Ex 3:11 1Ki 18:9-14 Mt 10:16 Lu 1:34
- Take an heifer.
For the prudent management of the affair, and to avoid
suspicion, Samuel was directed to go to Bethlehem to
sacrifice, as he probably did from time to time in many
different places; and the answer which he was instructed to
return was strictly true though he did not tell the principal
design of his coming; for though no man in any circumstances
should tell a lie, yet, in all circumstances, he is not bound
to tell the whole truth, though he must tell nothing but the
truth, and so tell that truth that the hearer shall not
believe a lie by it.

* 1Sa 11:6; 18:12; 28:15 Jud 16:29 Ps 51:11 Ho 9:12
- evil spirit.
The evil spirit was either sent immediately from the Lord, or
permitted to come; but whether this was a diabolic possession,
or a mere mental malady, is not agreed: it seems to have
partaken of both. That Saul had fallen into a deep
low-spirited, there is little doubt; and that an evil spirit
might work more effectually on such a state of mind, there can
be little question. His malady appears to have been of a
mixed kind, natural and diabolical: there is too much of
apparent nature in it to permit us to believe it was all
spiritual; and there is too much of apparently supernatural
influence, to suffer us to believe it was all natural.
