1 Samuel 13:3

Listen to 1 Samuel 13:3
3 Y Jonatán hirió la guarnición de los filisteos que había en el collado, y lo oyeron los filisteos. E hizo Saúl tocar el shofar por toda la tierra, diciendo: Oigan los hebreos

1 Samuel 13:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 13:3

And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in
Geba
Not the same with Gibeah of Benjamin, as Jarchi; for it can hardly be thought that Jonathan should place himself with his thousand men where the Philistines had a garrison; or that if this was the same with that in the preceding verse, that it should be called by another name in this; but Gibeah and Geba were two places, as Kimchi observes, both indeed in the tribe of Benjamin, and it is very probable not far from one another; see ( Joshua 18:24 Joshua 18:28 ) . This seems to be the same with the hill of God, where was a garrison of the Philistines, ( 1 Samuel 10:5 ) , who after their defeat by Samuel contented themselves with some strong holds and garrisons in some parts of the land to keep Israel in awe; the Targum understands this of a single person, a governor of the Philistines in this place, whom Jonathan slew, and so Jarchi; and according to R. Isaiah he was one that was appointed to gather the tax for them:

and the Philistines heard of it,
which alarmed them, and made them prepare for war:

and Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land;
not he in person, for he was at Gilgal, as the next verse shows; but he ordered it to be blown, being aware of the preparations the Philistines were making to attack him:

saying, let the Hebrews hear;
both what his son had done, and what the Philistines were doing.

1 Samuel 13:3 In-Context

1 Como un hijo de un año era Saúl cuando comenzó a reinar; y dos años reinó sobre Israel
2 cuando se escogió tres mil de Israel; los dos mil estuvieron con Saúl en Micmas y en el monte de Bet-el, y los mil estuvieron con Jonatán en Gabaa de Benjamín; y envió a todo el otro pueblo cada uno a sus tiendas
3 Y Jonatán hirió la guarnición de los filisteos que había en el collado, y lo oyeron los filisteos. E hizo Saúl tocar el shofar por toda la tierra, diciendo: Oigan los hebreos
4 Y todo Israel oyó lo que se decía: Saúl ha herido la guarnición de los filisteos; y también que Israel olía mal a los filisteos. Y se juntó el pueblo en pos de Saúl en Gilgal
5 Entonces los filisteos se juntaron para pelear con Israel, treinta mil carros, y seis mil caballos, y pueblo como la arena que está a la orilla del mar en multitud; y subieron, y asentaron campamento en Micmas, al oriente de Bet-avén
