1 Samuel 17:52 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 17:52

And the men of Israel and of Judah arose
From their encampment and entrenchment, or they prepared for a pursuit:

and shouted, and pursued the Philistines;
shouted when they first set out, and continued shouting as they pursued, to animate their own troops, and terrify the enemy:

until thou come to the valley, and to the gates of Ekron;
which was one of the five principalities of the Philistines; so that they pursued them to their own cities, and to the very gates of them:

and the wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim;
a city in the tribe of Judah, and seems to be the same with Sharaim, (See Gill on Joshua 15:36). Josephus says F14, there were killed of the Philistines thirty thousand, and twice as many wounded:

even unto Gath, and unto Ekron;
Josephus F15 has it, to the borders of Gath, and to the gates of Ashkelon, which were two other principalities of the Philistines; according to Bunting F16, the whole chase was this, to the valley and river Sorek four miles; from thence to Ekron eight miles; to Ashkelon twenty miles, and to Gath twenty four miles; that is, from the place where Goliath was killed.

1 Samuel 17:52 In-Context

50 As铆 venci贸 David al filisteo con una honda y una piedra, e hiri贸 al filisteo y lo mat贸; mas no hab铆a espada en la mano de David.
51 Entonces David corri贸 y se puso sobre el filisteo, tom贸 su espada, la sac贸 de la vaina y lo mat贸, cort谩ndole la cabeza con ella. Cuando los filisteos vieron que su campe贸n estaba muerto, huyeron.
52 Y levant谩ndose los hombres de Israel y de Jud谩, gritaron y persiguieron a los filisteos hasta el valle y hasta las puertas de Ecr贸n. Los filisteos muertos yac铆an a lo largo del camino a Saaraim, aun hasta Gat y Ecr贸n.
53 Regresaron los hijos de Israel de perseguir a los filisteos y saquearon sus campamentos.
54 Entonces David tom贸 la cabeza del filisteo y la llev贸 a Jerusal茅n, pero puso sus armas en su tienda.
