1 Samuel 28:5 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 28:5

And when Saul saw the host of the Philistines
From the mountains of Gilboa, where he had pitched his camp:

he was afraid, and his heart greatly trembled;
on sight of the numbers of them, and thinking perhaps of the death of Samuel, and of the loss of David; who was now among the Philistines, and might possibly fight against him, and for the Philistines, of which he might be informed; however, he was not with him, and his conscience might accuse him of various sins he had been guilty of, for which he might fear the Lord would now reckon with him.

1 Samuel 28:5 In-Context

3 Ya Samuel era muerto, y todo Israel lo hab铆a lamentado, y hab铆anle sepultado en Rama, en su ciudad. Y Sa煤l hab铆a echado de la tierra los encantadores y adivinos.
4 Pues como los Filisteos se juntaron, vinieron y asentaron campo en Sunam: y Sa煤l junt贸 谩 todo Israel, y asentaron campo en Gilboa.
5 Y cuando vi贸 Sa煤l el campo de los Filisteos, temi贸, y turb贸se su coraz贸n en gran manera.
6 Y consult贸 Sa煤l 谩 Jehov谩; pero Jehov谩 no le respondi贸, ni por sue帽os, ni por Urim, ni por profetas.
7 Entonces Sa煤l dijo 谩 sus criados: Buscadme una mujer que tenga esp铆ritu de pyth贸n, para que yo vaya 谩 ella, y por medio de ella pregunte. Y sus criados le respondieron: He aqu铆 hay una mujer en Endor que tiene esp铆ritu de pyth贸n.
