사무엘이 가로되 네 칼이 여인들로 무자케 한 것 같이 여인 중 네 어미가 무자하리라 하고 그가 길갈에서 여호와 앞에서 아각을 찍어 쪼개니라
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“Samuel said” [15:33]. Samuel said to Agag: you have made many women widows and have castrated many men. You threw their circumcision to heaven and said to the Holy One: take the circumcision that you commanded Israel. Samuel said to Agag: now, your mother will mourn more than other women and Samuel hacked Agag to death in Gilgal.12Yalkut Shimoni, I Samuel, Remez, 123.
Rashi
As your sword bereaved women. To render them widows from their husbands, for you would cut off the membrum virile of the youths of Yisroel.31 See Rashi Devarim 25:18.
Rashi
[Shmuel] cut. He cut him into four pieces. This word has no likeness [in Scripture]. The Targum renders וַיְשַׁסֵּף as וּפָשַׁח. And in our Gemara we find, 'he broke off [מפשח] a branch, and gave us several twigs,'32 Beitzah 33b. meaning that he split.33 See Rashi’s commentary in Eichah 3:11.
