Sažetak
The here proposed explanation of Saul's transgression in 1 Sam 13,7b—15a differs from the already known solutions. A large number of the extant proposals, on the one hand, and the lack of consensus among these scholarly proposals, on the other hand, seem not only to justify but also to require a new attempt to define more precisely the nature of Saul's transgression in 13,7b-15a.
Some scholars assume that Saul's rejection in 13,7b-15a is a consequence of his either cultic transgression in 13,9 or of his disobedience to Samuel's earlier command in 1 Sam 10.8. Some other admit simply that the passage under consideration does not state explicitly what is Saul's transgression.
The content analysis of the passage 13,7b-15a, therefore, does not enable us to define more precisely the exact nature of Saul's transgression.
After the initial genre analysis of the passage it became obvious that the broader context should be taken into account as well, because the immediate context (1 Sam 13-14) does not clarify the puzzle of Saul's transgression and rejection. The analysis of the textual growth of this passage revealed the unquestionably active presence of the redactor in 13,7b-15a. The same analysis showed that the announcement of Saul's rejection (13,13-14) is contained in the material which is of the redactional origin. This pointed out that the question of Saul's transgression has to be solved within the broader context where the presence of the same redactor/redaction is recognizable. This broader context embraces the following texts: 1 Sam 9,1-11,15; 15,1-35 and 28,3-25. Our analysis of this broader context has shown that the texts 1 Sam 9,16-17; 10,8; 11,15 and 15,1-35 are useful frame and the right clue for the proper understanding of the exact nature of Saul's transgression in 13,7b-15a.
