Acts 13:21 · Douay-Rheims
“And after that they desired a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years.”
On this verse:
“God gave . . . them Saul . . . of the tribe of Benjamin--That the speaker was himself of the same name and of the same tribe, has often been noticed as in all likelihood present to the apostle's mind while speaking. forty years--With this length of Saul's reign (not mentioned in the Old Testament), JOSEPHUS coincides [Antiquities, 6.14.9].”
