The Philistines assembled all their troops ¹  at Aphek, while Israel camped at the spring that is in Jezreel.

In the twenty-seventh year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Zimri became king over Israel; he ruled for seven days in Tirzah. Zimri’s revolt took place while the army was deployed ¹  in Gibbethon, which was in Philistine territory.
