Saul's reign was marked by constant warfare, particularly against Israel's surrounding enemies. This period was crucial for the consolidation of the tribes of Israel into a unified nation. Saul's leadership, though flawed, was instrumental in establishing a monarchy that would later be solidified under David.they waged war against the Hagrites The Hagrites were a nomadic tribe, likely descendants of Hagar, the Egyptian maidservant of Sarah, Abraham's wife. They are mentioned in other biblical texts, such as <a href="/psalms/83-6.htm">Psalm 83:6</a>, as adversaries of Israel. The conflict with the Hagrites reflects the ongoing struggle between the Israelites and the various nomadic and settled peoples of the region. This warfare was part of the broader context of Israel's efforts to secure its borders and establish dominance in the land promised to them by God.who were defeated at their hands The victory over the Hagrites signifies God's favor and the fulfillment of His promises to Israel regarding the conquest of their enemies. This defeat would have been seen as a divine endorsement of Israel's military actions and a testament to their covenant relationship with God. The success in battle also highlights the importance of obedience and reliance on God for victory, a recurring theme throughout the Old Testament.and they occupied the dwellings of the Hagrites Occupying the dwellings of the Hagrites indicates a complete victory, as the Israelites not only defeated their enemies but also took possession of their land and resources. This occupation would have involved settling in the region, utilizing its resources, and possibly assimilating some of the local customs and practices. It reflects the broader biblical theme of the Israelites taking possession of the land promised to them by God.throughout the region east of Gilead Gilead was a fertile region east of the Jordan River, known for its balm and other resources. The mention of this area highlights the strategic and economic importance of the territory. Control over Gilead and its surrounding regions was crucial for trade routes and military advantage.

Bela and his clan victoriously fought with the Hagarites (Heb., Hagri'im) or Hagarenes (see <a href="/psalms/83-7.htm" title="Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;">Psalm 83:7</a>, Hagrim), that is, the sons of Hagar, for possession of the pasture-grounds east of Gilead. This Arab nation is mentioned in the Assyrian inscriptions. (The LXX. has ???? ?????????, i.e., hagg?rim, u sojourners," "nomads.")They dwelt in their tents.--This phrase first occurs in <a href="/genesis/9-27.htm" title="God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.">Genesis 9:27</a>.

It takes us to the time of Saul, and from that time up to the time of "the Captivity" (ver. 22) the victorious Reubenites, Gadites, and people of the half-tribe Manasseh had the benefit of enlarged domain at their expense: "They dwelt in their steads," after seizing great spoil.
