And because he inquired not of the Lord, therefore He slew him. According to Sa1 28:6, Saul did indeed inquire of Jahve, but received no answer, because Jahve had departed from him ( Sa1 28:15); but instead of seeking with all earnestness for the grace of Jahve, that he might receive an answer, Saul turned to the sorceress of Endor, and received his death-sentence through her from the mouth of Samuel, Sa1 28:19. Next: 1 Chronicles Chapter 11
