Contextual Overview
1 And the day came that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man bearing his armor, Come, and we will go over to the fort of the Philistines on the other side. But he did not tell his father. 2 And Saul was waiting at the edge of Gibeah, under the pomegranate in Migron; also the people with him, about six hundred men. 3 And Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, the brother of Ichabod, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli the priest of Jehovah in Shiloh, was wearing the ephod. And the people did not know that Jonathan had left. 4 And between the passes by which Jonathan sought to go over to the Philistine fort, there was a rocky crag on the one side , and the rocky crag opposite this; and the name of the oneSeneh. 5 The one crag was a pillar on the north in front of Michmash, and the one on the south in front of Gibeah. 6 And Jonathan said to the young man bearing his weapons, Come, we shall cross over to the fort of these uncircumcised ones. It may be Jehovah will work for us, for there is no hindrance to Jehovah, to save by many or by few. 7 And his armorbearer said to him, Do all that is in your heart; turn yourself. Behold, I am with you according to your heart. 8 And Jonathan said, Behold, we will cross over to the men and show ourselves to them. 9 If they say this to us, Stand still until we reach you, then we will stand in our place and not go up to them. 10 But if they say this, Come up to us, then we will go up, for Jehovah has given them into our hand; and this will be the sign for us.

and we will discover ourselves to them; present themselves to them at daylight, and let them know plainly who they were, that they were Hebrews.
