behold, Dagon
"they were very surprised to see that Dagon"
Dagon had fallen facedown on the ground
Yahweh had caused the statue to fall on its face during the night. The Philistines placed it in their idol temple, but it fell down and the people got sick with bubonic plague. They took it to Gath next, and the people of Gath began dying of the plague. They took the Ark to Ekron and the people did not want it there. Finally they sent it back to Israel.
