This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Entering into every house; house after house, sparing none.
Haling men and women; as by the hair of their heads.
Committed them to prison; this to be sure the Jews had yet retained power from the Romans to do. All this is but as a foil, to illustrate more the riches of God’s mercy towards Saul.
