Clarke's 1-samuel 14:19 Bible Commentary
While Saul talked unto the priest - Before he had made an end of consulting him, the increasing noise of the panic-struck Philistines called his attention; and finding there was no time to lose, he immediately collected his men and fell on them.
Barnes's 1-samuel 14:19 Bible Commentary
Withdraw thine hand - i. e., "Desist from what thou art about." Saul in his impatience to join the battle would not wait for the answer from God, which he had desired Ahijah to inquire for; just as later 1 Samuel 14:35 he would not wait to finish the altar which he had begun to build. Had he now waited he would doubtless have avoided the error into which he fell.
Wesley's 1-samuel 14:19 Bible Commentary
14:19 Withdraw - Trouble not thyself to enquire; for I now plainly discern the matter.
