V 8.......Send it on its way, 9 but keep watching it. If it goes up to its own territory, towards Beth Shemesh, then the Lord has brought this great disaster on us. But if it does not, then we shall know that it was not his hand that struck us but that it happened to us by chance.’

These are the summaries of the book of 1 Samuel.
They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
