1 Sam. 13:22      1 Sam. 14:1

First Samuel 13:23

And the Philistine army went out to the pass at Michmash.
[The word for pass is used for mountain passes and fords where one crosses over. This mountain pass is also called "Geba's Pass" in Isa. 10:29. This area in the central mountainous region is characterized by deep ravines (wadis) that cut through the landscape in an east-west direction. This limits the number of roads from the area around Jerusalem to the north. Michmas (now the Arab village of Mukhmas, which has retained the name) was an important city that protected Wadi es-Swenit, a deep ravine that runs from the central mountain passes down to the Jordan Valley. There is a section that is easy to pass, which is this pass. According to 1 Sam. 14:4–5, the road passed between two mountain formations called Botsets and Sene. Some identify this with Wadi es-Swenit, others believe it is 1 km southeast of the village of Mukhmas. The only way to get to Michmash was through this mountain pass, which connected it to the city of Gibeah, see Judges 19:11–15.]
