	Clarke's Commentary - 1 Chronicles 10
		The Israelites being totally routed, the Philistines, coming to strip the dead, find Saul and has three sons among the slain; they cut off Saul's head, and send it and his armour about the country to the idol temples; and then fix them up in the house of Dagon, 7-10.
		The reason of Saul's tragical death; the kingdom is transferred to David, 13, 14.
		They remembered their preservation from destruction, and, which to brave men is more galling, from bearing marks of having been defeated, and being deprived of the honourable hope of wiping off disgrace, or defending their country at future seasons.

	Bible History, Old Testament: Vol IV - Chapter 6
		His hordes had swarmed up the lovely rich valley of the Jabesh, laying bare its barley-fields and olive plantations, and wasting its villages; and they were now besieging the capital of Gilead - Jabesh-gilead - which occupied a commanding position on the top of an isolated hill overhanging the southern crest of the valley.
		It is, to say the least, a curious coincidence that Jabesh was the only town in Israel which had not taken part in the exterminating warfare against the tribe of Benjamin (Judges 21:9).
		The statement of the elders of Jabesh (ver.3) was evidently intended to mislead Nahash.

	King Saul - Biography

	Love The Lord 1st Samuel Lesson 11
		It seems, the men at Jabesh were willing to make a treaty with Nahash, and were even willing to go into servitude, if that was what it took to avoid a war with them.
		I Samuel 11:3 "And the elders of Jabesh said unto him, Give us seven days' respite, that we may send messengers unto all the coasts of Israel: and then, if [there be] no man to save us, we will come out to thee." It appears, they are not aware that Saul had been anointed king.
		I Samuel 11:10 "Therefore the men of Jabesh said, To morrow we will come out unto you, and ye shall do with us all that seemeth good unto you." The men of Jabesh stall for a little more time, by telling these Ammonites they are going to give up the next day.

		Jabesh Gilead, located east of the Jordan in Manasseh's territory, had nearly been destroyed by the Israelites following the war with Benjamin in order to obtain wives for the few remaining Benjamites (see Judges 21).
		Now Jabesh Gilead is threatened by the Ammonites, one of the two nations descended from Lot, and sends to the rest of Israel for help.
		When the messengers come to the Benjamite city of Gibeah, the very city which had committed the grievous sin that precipitated the war against Benjamin years earlier, and which happens to be the home of Saul, the residents seem particularly distressed.
