   The Philistines had no doubt collected troops in this
   emergency, from all the surrounding nation; but the number of
   chariots is immensely large beyond any example, and wholly
   disproportioned to the number of their cavalry.  It is
   probable, therefore, that for {sheloshim aileph,} "thirty
   thousand," we should read {shelosh aileph,} "three thousand,"
   with the Syriac and Arabic.
