Mt. Gilboa and the plain of Esdraelon.
Mountain range where Saul and Jonathan were slain (1 Sam. 28:44And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and pitched in Shunem: and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they pitched in Gilboa. (1 Samuel 28:4); 1 Sam. 31:1,81Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa. (1 Samuel 31:1)
8And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen in mount Gilboa. (1 Samuel 31:8); 2 Sam. 1:6,216And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him. (2 Samuel 1:6)
21Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, neither let there be rain, upon you, nor fields of offerings: for there the shield of the mighty is vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, as though he had not been anointed with oil. (2 Samuel 1:21); 2 Sam. 21:1212And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh-gilead, which had stolen them from the street of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, when the Philistines had slain Saul in Gilboa: (2 Samuel 21:12); 1 Chron. 10:1,81Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa. (1 Chronicles 10:1)
8And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa. (1 Chronicles 10:8)). When the tidings reached David he exclaimed, “Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, neither let there be rain upon you, nor fields of offerings.” It is judged to be on the S.W. of the valley of Jezreel.
