28:7 Excluded from God’s counsel, Saul resorted to illegitimate methods for finding God’s will. Saul had earlier prohibited the occult practice that he now engaged in himself (28:3). • Endor was on the boundary between Israel and Philistia; the area near Israel’s border was probably a safer location for a banned practice.
