Albert Barnes Commentary 1 Samuel 6:2

"And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, What shall we do with the ark of Jehovah? show us wherewith we shall sent it to its place." — 1 Samuel 6:2 (ASV)

The word for “priest” here is the same as that used for the priests of the true God; the word for diviners is always used for idolatrous or superstitious divining. Three modes of divination are described in Ezekiel 21:21–22: by arrows, by teraphim, and by the entrails of beasts (compare to Exodus 7:11 and Daniel 2:2).
