1 Kings 20:26,27

Ben-hadad numbered the Syrians, and went up to Aphek

A city in the tribe of Asher; which, it is probable, was one of those that Ben-hadad's father had taken from the king of Israel, (1 Kings 20:34,) not far from which was the plain of Galilee, where he intended to fight. And the children of Israel went against them Being encouraged by the remembrance of their former success, and an expectation of assistance from God. And pitched before them Probably upon some hilly ground where they might secure themselves, and watch for advantage against their enemies; which might be the reason why the Syrians durst not assault them before the seventh day, 1 Kings 20:29. Like two little flocks of kids Few and weak; being also, for convenience of fighting, and that they might seem more than they were, divided into two bodies.
