TSNTyndale Study Notes:

12:19 The people asked Samuel to intercede for them (see also 7:8) rather than praying themselves probably because they were out of fellowship with God (note the use of your God rather than “our God”).
• added to our sins: The sins included idol worship (12:21; see study note on 8:8).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

The ultimate punishment for sin is death. The nation of Israel had seen Yahweh destroy the nations that had oppressed them. They were concerned that they had become “dedicated for destruction” like those nations.
