TSNTyndale Study Notes:

15:1-35 After Saul failed to obey God and completely destroy the Amalekites, God rejected him in even stronger terms than before (cp. 13:8-14).

TTNTyndale Theme Notes:

Complete Destruction

God instructed Saul to “completely destroy” the Amalekites, who had ambushed the Israelites after the Exodus (see Exod 17:8-16; Deut 25:17-19). The Hebrew word kharam (“completely destroy”) often means dedicating something or someone completely to the Lord, either by destroying it (1 Sam 15:3; Josh 6:17-18) or by giving it as an offering (see Lev 27:28-29; Josh 6:19).

Complete destruction was called for in cases where those to be destroyed had committed a severe offense against God, such as worshiping false gods (Deut 7:1-6; 13:12-18). In 1 Samuel 15:3, complete destruction is prescribed as God’s judgment on a nation that mistreated his chosen people. Those who curse God’s family are, in turn, cursed (Gen 12:3).

God still judges the godless and impenitent. But in the new covenant, Christians are not called to be agents of such judgment. God calls us to exercise his mercy toward those who wrong us (see Luke 9:51-56). We must completely destroy whatever within ourselves wars against Christ (Rom 8:12-13; Col 3:5). And we must overcome the enemies of Christ by our faith, by the Good News, and by our love (Eph 6:10-20; 1 Jn 2:9-17). God will mete out judgment according to his justice and in his time (Rom 12:19; 2 Thes 1:6-10).

Passages for Further Study

Exod 22:20; Lev 27:28-29; Num 21:2-3; Deut 7:1-6, 26; 13:12-18; Josh 6:17-19; 7:11-26; 1 Sam 15:3; 1 Kgs 20:42; Isa 43:26-28


UTNuW Translation Notes:

General Information:

Samuel questions why Saul did not utterly destroyed the Amalekites.

(Occurrence 0) bleating of sheep … lowing of the oxen

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Shəmū\sup ʼēl\sup* and,what sound/voice the,sheep the=this in/on/at/with,ears,my and,lowing the,cattle which/who I hear )

These are the sounds that these animals make. Your language may have different terms for these.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

(Occurrence 0) in my ears … that I hear

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Shəmū\sup ʼēl\sup* and,what sound/voice the,sheep the=this in/on/at/with,ears,my and,lowing the,cattle which/who I hear )

These two phrases mean the same thing. Here “in my ears” refers to hearing. (See also: figs-metonymy)
