Note 1 topic: writing-background

וְ⁠שָׁא֗וּל יוֹשֵׁב֙ בִּ⁠קְצֵ֣ה הַ⁠גִּבְעָ֔ה

and,Saul staying in/on/at/with,outskirts_of the,Gibeah

The author is providing background information to help readers understand what happens in the story. In your translation, introduce this information in a way that would be natural in your own language and culture.

Note 2 topic: translate-symaction

תַּ֥חַת הָ⁠רִמּ֖וֹן

below/instead_of the,pomegranate_tree

Sitting under this tree was a symbolic action that showed Saul was acting as judge and military leader. There is a similar example in [22:6](../22/06.md) of Saul sitting under a tree for this same purpose. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action. Alternate translation: [sitting regally under the pomegranate tree]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠הָ⁠עָם֙

and,the,troops

The author assumes that readers will understand that by people here and throughout this chapter, he means men of Israel who were able to fight as soldiers, as in the previous chapter. See how you translated the term there. Alternate translation: [And the soldiers]
