Saul’s Unlawful Sacrifice
13 Saul was . . .[a] years old when he began to reign; and he reigned . . . and two[b][c] years over Israel.

- 1 Samuel 13:1 The number is lacking in Heb
- 1 Samuel 13:1 Two is not the entire number. Something has dropped out.
- 13.1 Acts 13.21 says Saul reigned forty years; but so did David (2 Sam 5.5). These must be round numbers, to indicate a fairly long rule.
