Then Samuel said: Gather all Israel at Mizpah, and I will pray to the LORD on your behalf—*Mizpah* (watchtower, the place of oversight) becomes the venue for national covenant renewal. Samuel announces his *palal* (intercession, prayer) on Israel's behalf, acting as *kohen* (priest) even as he is primarily *navi* (prophet).
