Then He Sinned Against the Lord by Eating With the Blood.

Saul laid an oath on the people, saying, cursed be the man who eats food until it is evening. But jonathan had not heard his father charge the people with the oath. So he put forth the tip of the staff that was in his hand and dipped it in the honeycomb. And his eyes became bright. Then saul said to all israel, you shall be on one side, and i and jonathan my son, will be on the other side. They struck down the philistines that day, from mihmash to gelon. The people flew upon the spoil and took sheep and oxen and calves and slew them on the ground.
