Samuel the seer. On the occasion when Samuel became judge he gained a great victory over the Philistines (1 Sam. 7:3–13), and it was no doubt the spoils that were taken at that time that are here referred to.

Whosoever had dedicated. These words indicate that it was a general practice to make dedications to the Lord from the spoils of war (see 2 Kings 12:18).
