F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Judges 1:16-36

Flagging in Their Great Task Judges 1:16-36 ; Judges 2:1-5 The conquest of Canaan was very partial. Israel dwelled among the ancient inhabitants of the land, much as the Normans did among the Anglo-Saxons, whom they found in England; and the mixture of the two peoples was the beginning of moral degeneracy and decline in the chosen race. Wherever there was the old-time faith in God, as in the case of Caleb, the land was cleared of the Canaanite; but where God was out , the Canaanite was ... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Judges 1:1-36

The Book of Judges covers historically a period from the death of Joshua to the judgeship of Samuel and the introduction of the monarchy. It opens with a description of the general condition of affairs at the close of the period of Joshua's leadership. He had led the people into possession of the land but had left them with much to be done ere its final subjugation. Their fist act was to seek to know the will of God as to who should commence this final work of conquest. Judah, the kingly... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 1:32

‘ But the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, for they did not drive them out.’ Note the significance of the words. They ‘dwelt among the Canaanites’. It may be that they simply went and dwelt amongst them and made no attempt to drive them out. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 1:1-36

Judges 1:1 to Judges 2:5 . The Conquests and Settlements of the Israelites in Western Palestine.— From this introduction, which is one of the most valuable parts of early Hebrew history, we learn that the various tribes invaded the land either singly or in small groups; that they had failures as well as successes; that in many instances they did not destroy the older population, but settled peacefully among them; and that, in particular, the larger cities of Canaan, as well as the fertile... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 1:27-34

Judges 1:27-Nahum : . Partial Successes.— Several of the tribes failed to win the prizes they coveted. Much of the allotted territory remained in the hands of the Canaanites. Judges 1:27 . Beth-shan is now Beisâ n. Situated in a fertile part of the Jordan Valley, 3 m. W. of the river, it commanded the Vale of Jezreel (Wady Jâ lû d), which led up to the plain of Esdraelon. Its “ daughters” are its daughter towns, or dependencies. Taanach and Megiddo (p. 30), towns 5 m. apart, were on the south... read more

CRITICAL NOTES.—Judges 1:17. And Judah went with Simeon.]The history is here resumed, after the digression (Judges 1:8-16). Zephath or Hormah.] The latter name, meaning “a devoting,” was evidently given to Zephath on account of the ban of destruction, for the second time executed here (cf.

Sermon Bible Commentary - Judges 1:1-36

Judges 1:0 and Judges 2:0 The character of Joshua is, like that of many soldiers, simple and easily understood. He was strong and of a good courage, a man, fit not only for battle, but for tedious campaigning; full of resources, and able to keep up the heart of a whole people by his hopeful bearing. It was one of the most difficult of tasks which was entrusted to Joshua. He was to lead the people through a series of the most brilliant and exciting military successes, and then to turn them to... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Judges 1:1-36

Through Moses, the children of Israel were let out of Egypt and God began to form a national kind of identity and began to forge the beginnings of a nation.

And thus, God keeping his covenant and his word to Abraham.Now the book of Judges takes up the next period in their history.... read more
