1 Samuel 5:11 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Samuel 5:11

9 So it was, after they had carried it away, that ^athe hand of the Lord was against the city with a very great destruction; and He struck the men of the city, both small and great,¹ and tumors broke out on them.

10 Therefore they sent the ark of God to Ekron. So it was, as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, “They have brought the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people!”

11 So they sent and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, “Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its own place, so that it does not kill us and our people.” For there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.

12 And the men who did not die were stricken with the tumors, and the ^acry of the city went up to heaven.
