Verse 13

13. Came no more into the coast of Israel They did not succeed in regaining what they had lost in Israel; they came no more as they had been wont to come, driving Israel before them and bringing them into subjection. The passage does not mean that the Philistines made no further attempt to enter the territory of Israel, for the contrary is implied in the words that immediately follow.

The hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel They made repeated attempts to regain their lost cause, and Saul kept up a constant war against them all his days, (1 Samuel 14:52,) but not until after the death of Samuel did they enter triumphantly the coasts of Israel. 1 Samuel 31:1. While the holy Samuel lived, all their efforts to conquer Israel resulted in defeat. He thus completed the deliverance which Samson began many years before. Judges 13:5.
