Wesley's Notes for 1 Samuel 10:3
10:3 Plain - Not that at the foot of mount Tabor, which was far from these parts; but another belonging to some other place. Bethel - Properly so called, which was in Ephraim, where there was a noted high - place, famous for Jacob's vision there, #Gen 28:19|, where it is probable they offered sacrifices, in this confused state of things, when the ark was in one place, and the tabernacle in another.
