Contextual Overview
1 One day Jonathan, Saul's son, said to the officer who carried his armor, "Come, let's go over to the Philistine camp on the other side." But Jonathan did not tell his father. 2 Saul was sitting under a pomegranate tree at the threshing floor near Gibeah. He had about six hundred men with him. 3 One man was Ahijah who was wearing the holy vest. (Ahijah was a son of Ichabod's brother Ahitub. Ichabod was the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the Lord 's priest in Shiloh.) No one knew Jonathan had left. 4 There was a steep slope on each side of the pass that Jonathan planned to go through to reach the Philistine camp. The cliff on one side was named Bozez, and the cliff on the other side was named Seneh. 5 One cliff faced north toward Micmash. The other faced south toward Geba. 6 Jonathan said to his officer who carried his armor, "Come. Let's go to the camp of those men who are not circumcised. Maybe the Lord will help us. The Lord can give us victory if we have many people, or just a few." 7 The officer who carried Jonathan's armor said to him, "Do whatever you think is best. Go ahead. I'm with you." 8 Jonathan said, "Then come. We will cross over to the Philistines and let them see us. 9 If they say to us, ‘Stay there until we come to you,' we will stay where we are. We won't go up to them. 10 But if they say, ‘Come up to us,' we will climb up, and the Lord will let us defeat them. This will be the sign for us."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And both of them discovered themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines,.... They passed over the valley that lay between Michmash and Gibeah, and presented themselves at the bottom of the hill or rock on which the garrison was, to the open view of it; and who might easily discern who they were, that they were Hebrews, as they did, as follows:
and the Philistines said, behold, the Hebrews came forth out of the holes where they had hid themselves, being in want of provisions, and almost starved, and so obliged to come out to seek for sustenance; see
1 Samuel 14:6.
