Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Judges 3:10

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

10. The Spirit of the Lord came upon him and he judged Israel, and went out to war —Impelled by a supernatural influence, he undertook the difficult task of government at this national crisis—addressing himself to promote a general reformation of manners, the abolition of idolatry, and the revival of pure religion. After these preliminary measures, he collected a body of choice warriors to expel the foreign oppressors. the Lord delivered Chushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushan-rishathaim —No details are given of this war, which, considering the resources of so potent a monarch, must have been a determined struggle. But the Israelitish arms were crowned through the blessing of God with victory, and Canaan regained its freedom and independence. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-11" class="com-number"
