1 Samuel 13:5
_ _ 1 Samuel 13:5. The Phillistines’ great host.
_ _ The Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen — Either this number must include chariots of every kind — or the word “chariots” must mean the men fighting in them (2 Samuel 10:18; 1 Kings 20:21; 1 Chronicles 19:18); or, as some eminent critics maintain, Sheloshim (“thirty”), has crept into the text, instead of Shelosh (“three”). The gathering of the chariots and horsemen must be understood to be on the Philistine plain, before they ascended the western passes and pitched in the heart of the Benjamite hills, in “Michmash,” (now Mukmas), a “steep precipitous valley” [Robinson], eastward from Beth-aven (Beth-el). |
1 Samuel 13:5
Thirty thousand chariots, &c. — Most of them, we may suppose, carriages for their baggage, not chariots of war, tho' all their allies were joined with them. |
1 Samuel 13:5
And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which [is] on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from (e) Bethaven.
(e) Which was also called Beth-el, in the tribe of Benjamin. |
- thirty thousand chariots:
- The Philistines had no doubt collected troops in this emergency, from all the surrounding nation; but the number of chariots is immensely large beyond any example, and wholly disproportioned to the number of their cavalry. It is probable, therefore, that for sheloshim aileph, "thirty thousand," we should read shelosh aileph, "three thousand," with the Syriac and Arabic.
