1 Samuel 14:18 (King James Version)
And Saul said unto Ahiah, Bring hither the ark of God. For the ark of God was at that time with the children of Israel.
- Bring hither
- The Septuagint reads [Prosagage to ephoud, hoti autos ere to ephoud en te hemera ekeine enopiou Israel.] "Bring hither the ephod; for he bore the ephod on that day before Israel:" which Houbigant and others think is the true reading. Finding that his son Jonathan and his armour-bearer were absent, Saul wished to consult the high-priest; but the tumult increasing, he says to him, "Withdraw thine hand:" i
- e., desist form consulting the ephod on the present occasion, and immediately hastened to make the best use he could of this astonishing victory.
