3. Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Mizpeh —Some suppose that Benjamin had been passed over, the crime having been perpetrated within the territory of that tribe [ :- ]; and that, as the concubine's corpse had been divided into twelve pieces [ Judges 19:29 ] —two had been sent to Manasseh, one respectively to the western and eastern divisions. It is more probable that Benjamin had received a formal summons like the other tribes, but chose to treat it with indifference, or haughty disdain. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-4" class="com-number"
