SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:13
¶ Fueron, pues , los filisteos humillados, que no vinieron más al término de Israel; y la mano del SEÑOR fue contra los filisteos todo el tiempo de Samuel.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 7:13
Verse 13. They came no more into the coast of Israel] Perhaps a more signal victory was never gained by Israel; the Lord had brought them low, almost to extermination; and now, by his miraculous interference, he lifts them completely up, and humbles to the dust their proud oppressors. God often suffers nations and individuals to be brought to the lowest extremity, that he may show his mercy and goodness by suddenly rescuing them from destruction, when all human help has most evidently failed.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 13. So the Philistines were subdued , etc.] Not that their country was conquered, or they made subject and become tributaries to Israel; but they were so humbled, as not to attempt to give the people of Israel any further trouble and distress, who were now delivered from their oppression and tyranny: and came no more into the coast of Israel ; at this time they did not gather together their forces dispersed, nor raise and bring a new army into the land of Israel; they contented themselves with placing garrisons on the coast, but did not attempt to enter and invade them any more; that is, for a long time, even until Samuel was grown old, and the people would have a king, and had one, which offended the Lord, and then he suffered them to be distressed by them again; but while Samuel was alone governor they came no more, though they did quickly after Saul was made king, as it follows: the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel ; not all the days of his life, but all the days of his sole government, which restrained them from making incursions into the land of Israel; and indeed in later times, when they did come forth to make war with them, the battle was against them during the times of Samuel.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 13-17 - In this great revival of true religion, the ark was neither removed to Shiloh, nor placed with the tabernacle any where else. This disregar to the Levitical institutions showed that their typical meaning forme their chief use; and when that was overlooked, they became a lifeles service, not to be compared with repentance, faith, and the love of God and man __________________________________________________________________
