All the leaders of Israel came to King David at the town of Hebron. David made an agreement with those leaders in Hebron before the Lord. The leaders anointed {\cf2\super [110]} David. That made him king over Israel. The Lord promised this would happen. The Lord had used Samuel to make that promise.
Then David took the bones of Saul and Jonathan from the men of Jabesh Gilead. (The men of Jabesh Gilead got these bones after Saul and Jonathan were killed at Gilboa. The Philistines had hanged the bodies of Saul and Jonathan on a wall in Beth Shan. [125] But the men of Beth Shan went there and stole the bodies out of that public area.)
