The three raiding parties of the Philistines 19. The policy of the Philistines, to allow no blacksmith in Israel (22) There was neither sword nor spear.--These words must not be pressed too literally. The general result of the raids alluded to in 1Samuel 13:16-17 was that in the open valleys of Southern Canaan, especially in the Benjamite territory, the districts whence Saul and Jonathan could most easily recruit their thinned and dispirited forces, there was an absence of arms. This fact is especially dwelt upon, for the Philistines appear to have armed their fighting men to the teeth. (Compare the description of their champion, Goliath, who is described as "clad in armour.") But with Saul.--These words probably signify that the companies of regulars, who throughout this disastrous period were always with the king and prince, were--in contrast to the country people around--fully armed. (See allusion, for instance, to Jonathan and his armour-bearer in the next chapter.) Verse 22. - There was neither sword, etc. Armed only with clubs and their farming implements, it is no wonder that the people were afraid of fighting the Philistines, who, as we gather from the description of Goliath's armour, were clad in mail; nor is it surprising that they despised and neglected Saul and his few men, whom probably they regarded as an unarmed mob of rustics. The Ammonites probably were far less efficiently armed than the Philistines, who, as commanding the sea coast, could import weapons from Greece.Parallel Commentaries ...
