Exegesis

The Qal participle oleh {עוֹלֶה | ʿō-lēh} ‘ascending’ conveys movement from the Philistine lines, detailed by the locatives migat {מִגַּת | mi-gat} ‘from Gath,’ mimmamarot {מממערות | mim-ma-mar-ō-wṯ} ‘from caves,’ and mimmaarkhot pelishtim {מִמַּעַרְכֹּת פְּלִשְׁתִּים | mim-ma-ʿar-kōṯ pə-liš-ṭîm} ‘from the ranks of the Philistines.’

In context1 Samuel 17:23
