The Philistines defeat Israel on Mount Gilboa. Jonathan and Saul’s other sons are killed, Saul is badly wounded by archers, and when his armourbearer refuses to kill him, Saul falls on his own sword. The Philistines display Saul’s body and weapons as trophies, but valiant men from Jabesh-gilead recover the bodies of Saul and his sons and give them an honorable burial.
