1 Samuel 7:5 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Samuel 7:5

3 Then Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, “If you ^areturn to the Lord with all your hearts, then ^bput away the foreign gods and the ^cAshtoreths from among you, and ^dprepare your hearts for the Lord, and ^eserve Him only; and He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines.”

4 So the children of Israel put away the ^aBaals and the Ashtoreths, and served the Lord only.

5 And Samuel said, ^a“Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and ^bI will pray to the Lord for you.”

6 So they gathered together at Mizpah, ^adrew water, and poured it out before the Lord. And they ^bfasted that day, and said there, ^c“We have sinned against the Lord.” And Samuel judged the children of Israel at Mizpah.

7 Now when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel had gathered together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard of it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
