1 Samuel 5:6

Listen to 1 Samuel 5:6
6 Entonces la mano dura del Se帽or
hiri贸 a la gente de Asdod y de las aldeas cercanas con una plaga de tumores.

1 Samuel 5:6 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 5:6

But the hand of the Lord was heavy on them of Ashdod
Not only on their idol, but on themselves; it had crushed him to pieces, and now it fell heavy on them to their destruction:

and he destroyed them;
either by the disease after mentioned they were smitten with, or rather with some other, since that seems not to be mortal, though painful; it may be with the pestilence:

and smote them with emerods;
more properly haemorrhoids, which, as Kimchi says, was the name of a disease, but he says not what; Ben Gersom calls it a very painful disease, from whence comes a great quantity of blood. Josephus F21 takes it to be the dysentery or bloody flux; it seems to be what we commonly call the piles, and has its name in Hebrew from the height of them, rising up sometimes into high large tumours:

even Ashdod and the coasts thereof;
not only the inhabitants of the city were afflicted with this disease, but those of the villages round about.

1 Samuel 5:6 In-Context

4 Pero temprano al d铆a siguiente sucedi贸 lo mismo: de nuevo Dag贸n hab铆a ca铆do boca abajo frente al arca del Se帽or
. Esta vez su cabeza y sus manos se hab铆an quebrado y estaban a la entrada; solo el tronco de su cuerpo qued贸 intacto.
5 Por eso, hasta el d铆a de hoy, ni los sacerdotes de Dag贸n ni nadie m谩s que entra al templo de Dag贸n, en Asdod, pisan el umbral.
6 Entonces la mano dura del Se帽or
hiri贸 a la gente de Asdod y de las aldeas cercanas con una plaga de tumores.
7 Cuando el pueblo se dio cuenta de lo que suced铆a, exclam贸: 芦隆No podemos quedarnos con el arca del Dios de Israel ni un minuto m谩s! 隆脡l est谩 en contra de nosotros! Todos seremos destruidos junto con Dag贸n, nuestro dios禄.
8 De modo que convocaron a los gobernantes de las ciudades filisteas y les preguntaron:
鈥斅縌u茅 debemos hacer con el arca del Dios de Israel?
Los gobernantes deliberaron y contestaron:
鈥擳rasl谩denla a la ciudad de Gat.
As铆 que trasladaron el arca del Dios de Israel a Gat.
