1 SAMUEL—NOTE ON 1 Samuel 13:16 Geba is only a mile or two (1.6–3.2 km) from Michmash. The two are separated by a deep ravine, which is an important pass from the Jordan Valley into the Ephraimite hills. The Philistines were stationed at the hilltop that overlooks the ravine from the north, while Saul’s army was encamped to the south. See ch. 1 Samuel 14:1.
