Greetings worknprogress, In 1Sam 10:8 Samuel gave Saul instructions to go to Gilgal and to wait on Samuel for 7 days and Samuel would come down and offer burnt sacrifices for the battle but Samuel took his time in coming on the 7th day and Saul went ahead and offered the sacrifices himself. This is what Samuel was referring to when he said that Saul had done foolishly. Saul's sin was not that he offered the sacrifice but that he was disobedient to the prophet and didn't wait for his priestly assistance. Saul wanted to have absolute power in both civil and sacred matters. Samuel was testing Saul's obedience and character to God but he failed by invading the priestly office himself in offereing the sacrifice himself. prayon | ||||||
