“So Yahweh saved Israel that day; and the battle passed over by Beth Aven.”
1 Samuel 14:23 (WEB)
Context Reading
21Now the Hebrews who were with the Philistines before and who went up with them into the camp from all around, even they also turned to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan. 22Likewise all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves in the hill country of Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, even they also followed hard after them in the battle. 23So Yahweh saved Israel that day; and the battle passed over by Beth Aven. 24The men of Israel were distressed that day; for Saul had adjured the people, saying, “Cursed is the man who eats any food until it is evening, and I am avenged of my enemies.” So none of the people tasted food. 25All the people came into the forest; and there was honey on the ground.
