Should the article explain that Endor is a location in Palestine-Israel?--Connection 01:05, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
Definitely the woman was surprised that Samuel answered. It gives the impression she didnt expect him. All the analysis to shearch for other reasons is unnecessary. Otherwise the article needs citations. The reference, at Jewish Encyclopedia, ascribe her surprise "to his rising [Samuel] in an unusual way—upright, not, as she expected, in a horizontal position". Does any source indicate the dead should be summoned "upright"?--Connection 01:05, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
The passage in the Bible text describing the appearance has curious grammer (changing from plural to singular). Any explanation?--Connection 01:05, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Speculation
What's with the arbitrary speculation at the bottom of the article? So now wikipedia can read J.R.R Tolkein's and George Lucas's minds? Care to furnish us with a source for those arbitrary claims?
