'Broke' in the Bible

When he mentioned the ark of God, Eli fell backward off the chair by the city gate, and since he was old and heavy, his neck broke and he died. Eli had judged Israel 40 years.

When war broke out again, David went out and fought against the Philistines. He defeated them with such a great force that they fled from him.

So Saul broke off his pursuit of David and went to engage the Philistines. Therefore, that place was named the Rock of Separation.
