1 Samuel 14:48

46 Then Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, and the Philistines went to their own place.

Saul’s Continuing Wars

47 So Saul established his sovereignty over Israel, and fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, against the people of ^aAmmon, against Edom, against the kings of ^bZobah, and against the Philistines. Wherever he turned, he harassed them.

48 And he gathered an army and ^aattacked the Amalekites, and delivered Israel from the hands of those who plundered them.

49 ^aThe sons of Saul were Jonathan,¹ Jishui, and Malchishua. And the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the firstborn Merab, and the name of the younger ^bMichal.

50 The name of Saul’s wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the commander of his army was Abner the son of Ner, Saul’s ^auncle.

1 Samuel 14:47-48

So Saul . . . fought against all his enemies on every side—This signal triumph over the Philistines was followed, not only by their expulsion from the land of Israel, but by successful incursions against various hostile neighbors, whom he harassed though he did not subdue them.
