1 Sam. 28:6      1 Sam. 28:8

First Samuel 28:7

Then Saul said to his servant, "Find me a woman who can consult a spirit, so that I may go to her and ask her."
And his servant answered him, "Behold, there is a woman who consults a spirit in Ein-Dor."
[The servant knew immediately about this woman who used black magic, necromancy, and spirit conjuring to speak with spirits. Ein-Dor is probably Tell Tsaftaafot, just a few kilometers south of Mount Tabor in the Jezreel Valley.]
