Saul was sitting on the outskirts of Geba under the pomegranate tree which was at Migron, and with him were about 600 men.

When Saul heard that David and the men who were with him had been found, he was sitting in Gibeah, under the tamarisk tree on the hill, with his spear in his hand. All his officials were standing around him.

Now I know for certain that you will be king, and that the kingdom will be established under your authority.

They took their bones, buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted for seven days.
