1 Kings 20:27

And went — Being encouraged by the remembrance of their former success, and an expectation of assistance from God again. And pitched — Probably upon some hilly ground, where they might secure themselves, and watch for advantage against their enemies; which may be the reason why the Syrians durst not assault them before the seventh day, 1 Kings 20:29. Little flocks — Few, and weak, being also for conveniency of fighting, and that they might seem to be more than they were, divided into two bodies.
