Exegesis
The prepositional phrase mippanav {מִפָּנָיו | mip-pə-nāw} ‘from his presence’ indicates source, and the adverb meod {מְאֹד | mə-ʾōḏ} ‘very’ intensifies the fear. English smoothing transforms the distributive into a collective subject and preserves the sequence of events.
In context — 1 Samuel 17:24
Whenever the men of Israel saw the man, they fled from his presence and were stricken with dread .
