the entire document serves as the proper context .... for any piece or part
of the language in a single verse, including the proper antonyms, many & few
(versus improper antonyms many & one).

hence, 1 samuel 13:13-14; 16:1-15; invests 2 samuel 3:1 with
implicit disapproval of saul and corresponding approval of david; saul
weakened and david strengthened by wives and children.
