Kommentar zu Schemuel I 11:14
וַיֹּ֤אמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל֙ אֶל־הָעָ֔ם לְכ֖וּ וְנֵלְכָ֣ה הַגִּלְגָּ֑ל וּנְחַדֵּ֥שׁ שָׁ֖ם הַמְּלוּכָֽה׃
Da sprach Samuel zum Volk: 'Komm und lass uns nach Gilgal gehen und dort das Königreich erneuern.'
Rashi on I Samuel
And Shmuel said, "…and renew the kingdom there." Because at first there was opposition in the matter, but now they unanimously agreed.9 Shmuel merely invited them to Gilgol; it was not a command. See above 9:9 for a similar expression וְנֵלְכָה. However, now that Shaul saved the people of Yoveish Gilad from the Ammonites; all the people rallied behind him and accepted him as their king.
