Gilgal in 1 Samuel 11
GIL-gal
This place shows up in 1 Samuel 11:14: “Then Samuel said to the people, “Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there.”” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
1 Samuel 11:14
“Then Samuel said to the people, “Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there.””
