What does 1 Samuel 15:9-11 mean? Commentary, explanation and study verse by verse.
But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings,a and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,
It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.
