TSNTyndale Study Notes:

12:17 The wheat harvest occurred in late spring or early summer, when little or no rain fell in Israel. Thunder and rain would thus demonstrate God’s power as a sign of the people’s wickedness in asking for a king.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) Is it not the wheat harvest today?

(Some words not found in UHB: am=not harvest wheat the=day call to/towards YHWH and,send thunder and,rain and,know and,see that/for/because/then/when wickedness,your_all's enough/great(fs) which/who done in/on=both_eyes_of YHWH by,asking to/for=you_all king )

Samuel knows it is harvest time. He is using a rhetorical question to emphasize that it does not usually rain at this time so the people will know that the rain that will ruin their harvest is a judgment from Yahweh. Alternate translation: “It is harvest time and does not usually rain at this time”

(Occurrence 0) he may send thunder and rain

(Some words not found in UHB: am=not harvest wheat the=day call to/towards YHWH and,send thunder and,rain and,know and,see that/for/because/then/when wickedness,your_all's enough/great(fs) which/who done in/on=both_eyes_of YHWH by,asking to/for=you_all king )

Samuel is asking Yahweh to punish Israel for asking for a king by sending a rainstorm during the harvest which will ruin the grain.
