1 Samuel5:3
They of Ashdod arose early on the morrow - Probably to perform some act of their superstition in the temple of their idol.
Dagon was fallen upon his face - This was one proof, which they little expected, of the superiority of the God of Israel.
Set him in his place again - Supposing his fall might have been merely accidental.
