Commentary on 1 Chronicles 10:14

Theological / Devotional

And enquired not of the Lord. Before inquiring of the witch of Endor, Saul endeavored to secure an answer from God, but failed (1 Sam. 28:6). The Lord refused to give ear to Saul. Had Saul truly repented, coming to the Lord in meekness and penitence, God would have heard him. His turning to a medium who represented the evil one indicates clearly the depths to which Saul had fallen (see on 1 Sam. 28:6, 7).

Unto David. In these words the transition is made from the early history of the people of God to David the king. The dynasty of David will now be the subject of the remainder of Chronicles.
