Jonathan attacks the Philistines
13 Saul was 30 years old when he became king. He ruled Israel as king for 42 years.[a] 2 He chose 3,000 men from Israel's army to be with him. 2,000 of those men stayed with him at Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel. Then 1,000 men were with his son Jonathan at Gibeah, in the land of Benjamin's tribe. Saul sent all the other men of the army back to their homes.
