* Samuel.
It has been a matter of wonder to many, how Samuel could thus
slay a captive prince, even in the presence of Saul, who from
motives of clemency had spared him; but it should be remarked,
that what Samuel did here, he did in his magisterial capacity;
and that Agag had been a cruel tyrant, and therefore was cut
off for his merciless cruelties. Farther, it is not likely
that he did it by his own sword, but by that of the
executioner. What kings, magistrates, and generals do, in an
official way, by their subjects, servants, or soldiers, they
are said to do themselves:--{qui facit per alterum, facit per
se.}

For the prudent management of the affair, and to avoid
suspicion, Samuel was directed to go to Bethlehem to
sacrifice, as he probably did from time to time in many
different places; and the answer which he was instructed to
return was strictly true though he did not tell the principal
design of his coming; for though no man in any circumstances
should tell a lie, yet, in all circumstances, he is not bound
to tell the whole truth, though he must tell nothing but the
truth, and so tell that truth that the hearer shall not
believe a lie by it.

The evil spirit was either sent immediately from the Lord, or
permitted to come; but whether this was a diabolic possession,
or a mere mental malady, is not agreed: it seems to have
partaken of both. That Saul had fallen into a deep
melancholy, there is little doubt; and that an evil spirit
might work more effectually on such a state of mind, there can
be little question. His malady appears to have been of a
mixed kind, natural and diabolical: there is too much of
apparent nature in it to permit us to believe it was all
spiritual; and there is too much of apparently supernatural
influence, to suffer us to believe it was all natural.

According to Bp. Cumberland's calculation, the height of
Goliath was about eleven feet ten inches; but Parkhurst
estimating the ordinary cubit at seventeen inches and a half,
calculates that he was nine feet six inches high. Few
instances can be produced of men who can be compared with him.
Pliny says, "The tallest man that hath been seen in our days
was one name Gabara, who, in the days of Claudius, the late
Emperor, was brought out of Arabia: he was nine feet nine
inches." Josephus mentions a Jew, named Eleazar, whom
Vitellius sent to Rome, who was seven cubits, or ten feet two
inches high. Becanus saw a man near ten feet, and a woman
that was full ten feet. And, to mention no more, a man of the
name of John Middleton, born at Hale, near Warrington, in
Lancashire, in the reign of James the First, was more than
nine feet high. Dr. Plott, in his history of Staffordshire,
says, that "his hand, from the carpus to the end of the middle
finger, was seventeen inches, his palms eight inches and a
half broad, and his whole height was nine feet three inches;
wanting but six inches of the height of Goliath of Gath."

* the valley.
Dr. Richardson says, that in about twenty minutes, in an
easterly direction, form the cave of St. John, (which is about
two hours or six miles, in a westerly direction, from
Jerusalem,) they came to the valley of Elah; which position
seems to agree with that of Shochoh and Azekah. He describes
it as "a small valley, and the place of the encampment is
pointed out where it narrows into a broad, deep ravine; part
of it was in crop, and part of it was under the plough, which
was drawn by a couple of oxen. A small stream, which had
shrunk almost under its stony bed, passes through it from east
to west, from which we are informed that David chose out five
smooth stones, and hasted and ran to meet the haughty champion
of Gath. A well of water under the bank, with a few olive
trees above, on the north side of the valley, are said to mark
the spot of the shepherd's triumph over his boasting
antagonist. Saul and his men probably occupied the side of
the valley which is nearest to Jerusalem, on which the ground
is higher and more rugged than on the other side."
