שמואל א, פרק כ״ח, פסוק כ״ג

After initially refusing to eat, Saul finally surrenders to the heavy pressure from his servants and the woman. They urge him repeatedly, using many words in a persistent attempt to convince him to take nourishment [מצודת ציון].

His physical movement—rising from the ground and taking a seat—signals his acceptance of their pleas. Yielding to their requests, Saul ultimately sits upon a bed that is present in the room [רד״ק, ביאור שטיינזלץ].
