all Israel.They vainly supposed that the ark would save them, when the God of it had departed from them because of their wickedness.
Judg. 15:14• 14When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted against him. And the Spirit of Jehovah came upon him, and the cords that were on his arms became as threads of flax that are burned with fire, and his bands loosed from off his hands. (Judg. 15:14)
;
Job 20:5• 5The exultation of the wicked is short, and the joy of the ungodly man but for a moment? (Job 20:5)
;
Jer. 7:4• 4Confide ye not in words of falsehood, saying, Jehovah's temple, Jehovah's temple, Jehovah's temple is this. (Jer. 7:4)
;
Amos 6:3• 3Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near; (Amos 6:3)

Mic. 2:11• 11If a man walking in wind and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink, he shall be the prophet of this people. (Mic. 2:11)
• The outward sign of God's presence is sufficient for this system which boasts: We have the ark. Israel thinks that God cannot abandon them without exposing Himself to shame. But God does exactly this: He exposes Himself to shame; He allows the world seemingly to become His conqueror. In reality, this scene is the accomplishment of God's word through Samuel, but God, delivered into the hands of enemies, is the One who judges. (“1 Samuel 4” by H.L. Rossier)
