Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(31) And they set them up Micah's graven image.--Rather, entrusted to them, i.e., to Jonathan's descendants. The phrase "set them up" can only have been used by inadvertence by our translators in this verse, since the verb used, yasimo (LXX., etaxan heautois; but Vulg., mansitque apud eos, i.e., there remained with them the descendants of Jonathan), is wholly different from the verb yakim-, rendered "set up" (LXX., anestesan) in Judges 18:30.All the time that the house of God was in Shiloh--i.e., till Samuel's early manhood, when the Philistines sacked Shiloh, to which place the Ark and Tabernacle never returned (1Samuel 4:3, 1Samuel 6:21, 1Samuel 7:1). This verse may probably have been added by a later hand to prevent any mistake in the interpretation of the former. It may have been written in Saul's reign, when the Tabernacle and ephod had been removed to Nob for greater safety.
