1 Samuel 14:8 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 14:8

Then said Jonathan, behold, we will pass over to these men,
&c.] Over the precipices to them, as steep and as cragged as they are:

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.

1 Samuel 14:8 In-Context

6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour, Come and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised; peradventure the LORD will work for us, for it is not difficult for the LORD to save by many or by few.

7 And his armourbearer said unto him, Do all that is in thy heart; go. Behold, I am with thee according to thy will.

8 Then Jonathan said, Behold, we will go over unto these men, and we will show ourselves unto them.

9 If they say thus unto us, Tarry until we come to you, then we will stand still in our place and will not go up unto them.

10 But if they say thus, Come up unto us, then we will go up, for the LORD has delivered them into our hand, and this shall be a sign unto us.
