Dangerous Blacksmiths

This is a very interesting verse. The Philistines were wary of those with capabilities to manufacture tools and weapons which could be used against them.

1 Samuel 13:19

“There were no blacksmiths in the land of Israel in those days. The Philistines wouldn’t allow them for fear they would make swords and spears for the Hebrews.”
