Chapter overview (whole chapter)
The Philistines overwhelmed Israel at Mount Gilboa, killing Saul's sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, and severely wounding Saul, who fell on his own sword rather than be captured. The men of Jabesh-gilead later recovered the bodies of Saul and his sons and gave them an honorable burial.
