- the Hebrews:
- Probably such as they held in bondage, or who were their servants. Instead of (haivrim) "the Hebrews," the LXX evidently read haavdim, for they have οι δουλοι, "the slaves;" but this reading is not countenanced by any other version, nor by any manuscript "And the princesª of the Philistinesª were wrothª° with¹ him; and the princesª of the Philistinesª saidª° unto him, Make²° this fellow² return,ª°¹¹ that he may go againª° to¹ his placeª which¹¹ thou hast appointedª° him, and let him not¹ go downª° with¹ us to battle,ª lest¹ in the battleª he be¹ an adversaryª to us: for wherewith¹ should he reconcileª° himself¹ unto¹ his master?ª [should it] not¹ [be] with the headsª of these¹ men?²¹" {1Sm 29:4} + "And the menª of Israelª gathered themselves togetherª° out of Naphtali,ª¹ and out of¹ Asher,ª and out of¹ all¹ Manasseh,ª and pursuedª° afterª the Midianites.ª" {Jdg 7:23}
