1 Samuel 2:22
Eli <05941> [Now.]
Israel <06213 03478> [did unto.]
women <0802> [women.]
It is probable that these were persons who had some employment about the tabernacle: see note on Ex 38:8.
stationed <06633> [assembled. assembled by troops.]
1 Samuel 3:17
conceal ............ conceal <03582> [I pray thee.]
God <0430> [God.]
severely <03254> [more also. Heb. so add. thing. or, word.]
1 Samuel 6:15
1 Samuel 9:6
town <05892> [city.]
respected <03513> [an honourable.]
says <01696> [all that he saith.]
1 Samuel 14:21
Hebrews <05680> [the Hebrews.]
Probably such as they held in bondage, or who were their servants. Instead of (h„ivrim,} "the Hebrews," the LXX. evidently read {haƒvdim,} for they have [Loi douloi,] "the slaves;" but this reading is not countenanced by any other version, nor by any MS.
1 Samuel 15:20
obeyed <08085> [Yea.]
brought <0935> [have brought.]
1 Samuel 25:21
vain <08267> [Surely.]
from <07725> [he hath requited.]
1 Samuel 26:5
Abner <074> [Abner.]
entrenchment <04570> [trench. or, midst of his carriages.]
The word {maÂgal} never signifies a ditch or rampart, but a chariot or waggon way. Nor does it seem to denote a ring of carriages, as Buxtorf and others interpret the word; for it is not probable that Saul would encumber his army with baggage in so rapid a pursuit, nor that so mountainous a country was practicable for waggons. It appears simply to mean here, the circular encampment (from {agal,} "round") which these troops formed, in the midst of which, as being the place of honour, Saul reposed. An Arab camp, D'Arvieux informs us, is always circular, when the disposition of the ground will permit, the prince being in the middle, and the troops at a respectful distance around him. Add to which, their lances are fixed near them in the ground all the day long, ready for action.
1 Samuel 28:9
<03772> [how he hath.]
trapping <05367> [wherefore.]
1 Samuel 30:21
hundred <0582 03967> [two hundred men.]
approached <05066> [came near.]
