Context of 1 Chronicles 10:11

9And they stripped him, and took his head, and his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry the tidings unto their idols, and to the people. 10And they put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.

Commentaries on 1 Chronicles 10:11

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 11When all Jabesh-gilead heard - For a general account of the principles of heroism and gratitude from which this action of the men of Jabesh-gilead proceeded, see the note on 1 Samuel 31:11, 1 Samuel 31:12. By the kindness of a literary friend, I am enabled to lay a farther illustration of this noble act before the reader, which he will find at the conclusion of the chapter.Read the comment

This emphasizes God's role in removing Saul and replacing him with David (1 Chronicles 10:14).Read the comment
