非利士人和以色列人之间的大战 - 基利波山
描述
非利士军队从亚弗前进到书念,准备在耶斯列附近攻击以色列人。扫罗因惧怕面前的强大军队,夜间悄悄离开,去隐多珥求问一个交鬼的妇人,以寻求已故撒母耳的指引。第二天早晨,非利士人发动攻击,以色列人撤退到吉尔波亚山的山坡上。扫罗和他的三个儿子被杀,非利士人嘲讽以色列人,将他们的尸体挂在伯珊的城墙上。后来,雅比·基列的勇士连夜赶去,将尸体取回。

Gilboa
boiling spring, a mountain range, now Jebel Fukua', memorable as the scene of Saul's disastrous defeat by the Philistines. Here also his three sons were slain, and he himself died by his own hand (1Sam 28:4; 31:1-8; 2Sam 1:6-21; 21:12; 1Chr 10:1; 10:8). It was a low barren range of mountains bounding the valley of Esdraelon (Jezreel) on the east, between it and the Jordan valley. When the tidings of this defeat were conveyed to David, he gave utterance to those pathetic words in the "Song of the Bow" (2Sam 1:19-27).
