11. And when the inhabitants of Jabeshgilead heard of that which the Philistines had done to Saul; 12. All the valiant men arose, and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Bethshan, and came to Jabesh, and burnt them there. 13. And they took their bones, and buried [them] under a tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
1 Samuel 31:11-13 — KJV
Jabesh-gilead. See on ch. 11:1-11. Remembering that Saul had wrought so wonderfully for the deliverance of this city, the elders felt it a privilege to do honor to the body of their rescuer. Misfortune, defeat, and death all bring to light the hidden sympathies in the hearts of men, and reveal their noblest sentiments.
