Description

Why did Shemuel omit the fate of Shaul's head, while Divrei haYamim said it was put in the temple of Dagon? What was the origin of the relationship between Yavesh Gilad, Binyamin and Shaul? Why is Shaul's burial site beneath an Eshel here, and beneath an Elah in Divrei haYamim? And what's wrong with cremation?
