וְכֹל֩ אִ֨ישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל הַמִּֽתְחַבְּאִ֤ים בְּהַר־אֶפְרַ֙יִם֙ שָֽׁמְע֔וּ כִּֽי־נָ֖סוּ פְּלִשְׁתִּ֑ים וַֽיַּדְבְּק֥וּ גַם־הֵ֛מָּה אַחֲרֵיהֶ֖ם בַּמִּלְחָמָֽה ׃

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

hid themselves: 1 Samuel 13:6, 1 Samuel 31:7

the battle: The LXX and Vulgate add here, ךבי נבע ן כבןע חם לופב בןץכ שע הוךב קיכיבהוע בםהסשם, Et erant cum Saul, quasi decem millia virorum. "And (all the people who were, LXX) there were with Saul about ten thousand men;" but this is supported by no other authority.

Reciprocal: Judges 7:23 - General 1 Samuel 14:11 - out of the holes 1 Samuel 17:52 - the men of Israel 1 Samuel 31:2 - followed Jeremiah 41:9 - because of Gedaliah

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Likewise all the men of Israel which had hid themselves in Mount Ephraim,.... In the caves and rocks, thickets and pits there, see 1 Samuel 13:6 when

they heard that the Philistines fled; now being delivered from their fears, and thinking themselves safe, ventured out of their lurking places:

even they also followed hard after them in the battle; they joined the pursuers who came their way, and stuck to them, and closely pursued the flying army of the Philistines. According to Josephus p, the army of Saul was now increased to 10,000.

p Antiqu. l. 6. c. 6. sect. 3.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 14:22. The men - which had hid themselves — See 1 Samuel 13:6.

The Vulgate and the Septuagint add here, And there were with Saul about ten thousand men; but this is supported by no other authority.
