2 Samuel21:14

14 And the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son, buried they in the countrey of Benjamin in Zelah , in the sepulchre of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king commanded: and after that God was intreated for the land.

A place in Benjamin, mentioned Ios. 18. 28.

After those things were done which were before related; i. e. after they were hanged up: for by that God was pacified, and not by their burial. So the relative belongs to the remoter antecedent. Or, if this relate to what was last mentioned, the meaning is, that God was pleased to restore the Blessing of plenty to the Land.
