description | This article reconsiders the pericope in 1 Samuel
13:13-14, in which Samuel told Saul that had he been obedient to him, he and his

scholars and interpreters as a later addition or as Samuel’s own interpretation
of God’s oracles. I contest these views on the basis of historical and
exegetical arguments. |
