16.He terrifies them with thunder in harvest time

But if you disobey the LORD and rebel against His command
This phrase highlights the conditional nature of the covenant relationship between God and Israel. Disobedience and rebellion against God's command are central themes throughout the Old Testament, often leading to divine judgment. The Israelites were repeatedly warned by prophets to adhere to God's laws (Deuteronomy 28:15). The historical context here is Samuel's farewell address, where he reminds the people of their covenant obligations. Rebellion against God is seen as a serious offense, akin to idolatry (1 Samuel 15:23).

then the hand of the LORD will be against you
The "hand of the LORD" is a metaphor for God's power and intervention, often used to describe both His protection and His judgment. In this context, it signifies divine opposition and punishment. This phrase echoes the warnings given in the Mosaic Law, where blessings and curses were contingent upon Israel's obedience (Leviticus 26:14-17). The imagery of God's hand against the people serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of disobedience.

as it was against your fathers
This refers to the historical experiences of the Israelites, particularly during the period of the Judges, when they repeatedly fell into cycles of sin, oppression, repentance, and deliverance (Judges 2:11-19). The mention of "your fathers" serves as a reminder of past judgments, such as the wilderness wanderings and the various captivities due to disobedience. It underscores the importance of learning from history to avoid repeating the same mistakes. This phrase also connects to the broader biblical narrative of God's faithfulness and the human tendency to stray, highlighting the need for repentance and reliance on God's grace.

What Does 1 Samuel 12:15 Mean
But if you disobey the LORD

• The verse opens with a stark condition—Israel’s choice to ignore God’s revealed will.

• Scripture consistently ties blessing to obedience (Deuteronomy 28:1–2) and warning to disobedience (Leviticus 26:14–17).

• Samuel reminds the nation that their covenant with God is not merely ceremonial; it governs every sphere of life (Joshua 24:20).

and rebel against His command

• “Rebel” signals willful resistance, not accidental failure (Numbers 14:9).

• God’s commands are not suggestions; they convey His moral authority (Exodus 20:1–17).

• Rejecting that authority is ultimately rejecting God Himself (1 Samuel 8:7).

then the hand of the LORD

• “Hand” pictures God’s direct intervention, whether for protection (Psalm 139:10) or discipline (Psalm 32:4).

• This is personal involvement, not impersonal fate; the same hand that saved them from Egypt can just as surely correct them (Exodus 6:6).

will be against you

• Opposed, not neutral. Blessing and judgment both flow from the same covenant relationship (Deuteronomy 30:15–18).

• God disciplines those He loves (Proverbs 3:11–12;Hebrews 12:6), yet the consequences can be severe—crop failures, military defeat, national turmoil (Judges 2:14–15).

as it was against your fathers

• A sober reminder of past history: forty wilderness years (Numbers 14:32–35), defeats under the Judges (Judges 10:6–9), and exile threats later fulfilled (2 Kings 17:18).

• Memory serves as motivation; the previous generation’s pain should guide current obedience (Psalm 78:6–8).

summary

1 Samuel 12:15 lays out a clear covenant principle: if God’s people choose disobedience and rebellion, the same powerful hand that rescues will actively oppose them, just as it did in their ancestors’ failures. Obedience brings favor; rebellion invites discipline—an unchanging reality affirmed throughout Scripture.

(15)But if ye will not obey.--The English translation here, with several of the versions, accurately and happily understands the Hebrew in the sense of "as:" "as it was against your fathers." Rabbi D. Kimchi prefers to understand "fathers" as put for "kings": "the hand of the Lord shall be against you and your kings." The LXX. reads, "against you and your king."

Verse 15. -Against you, as it was against your fathers. The Hebrew has "against you and your fathers," and so the Vulgate, for which the Septuagint reads, "against you and your king," as in ver. 25. The text is probably corrupt, and to make sense requires the insertion of some such words as those given in the A.V., with which the Syriac also agrees.
