On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Now he remembered the guilty blood of the Amalekites which he had spared, and the innocent blood of the priests which he had spilt. His sins were set in order before his eyes, which put him into confusion, embarrassed all his counsels, robbed him of all his courage, and produced in him a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

When God in his word speaks terror to sinners he opens to them, at the same time, a door of hope if they repent: but those that apply to the gates of hell for succour must there expect darkness without any glimpse of light. With what difficulty he was persuaded to take so much relief as was necessary to carry him back to his post in the camp.
