Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Philistines were afraid,.... When the spies returned, and reported to them the reason of the shouting:
for they said, God is come into the camp; into the camp of Israel, because the ark represented him, and was the symbol of his presence; and these Heathens might take the ark itself for an idol of the Israelites; the Targum is,
"the ark of God is come''
and they said, woe unto us; it is all over with us, destruction and ruin will be our case, victory will go on their side now their God is among them:
for there hath not been such a thing heretofore; if by this they meant that the ark had never been in the camp of Israel before, they were mistaken; and it is no great wonder they should, being not so well acquainted with the affairs of Israel, and their customs; or rather, it was not so yesterday, or three days ago, when they were defeated; there was no shouting then: or the state of the war is altered; before we fought with the men of Israel, but now we must fight with the God of Israel also.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 4:7. God is come into the camp. — They took for granted, as did the Israelites, that his presence was inseparable from his ark or shrine.
