1 SAMUEL 6:17 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And these are the golden emerods which the Philistines returned for a trespass offering unto the Lord; for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Askelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;”
These are the golden tumors which the Philistines sent as a guilt offering to the LORD: one for Ashdod, one for Gaza, one for Ashkelon, one for Gath, and one for Ekron—the *ashamim* (guilt offerings) are enumerated, one for each Philistine city. The offerings serve as *ot* (sign, memorial) of judgment and repentance.
