Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Judges 21:1-25

Chapter 21Now, these men [in chapter twenty-one, had made an oath] they had sworn in Mizpeh, saying, There shall not any of us give his daughter unto Benjamin for a wife ( Judges 21:1 ).These Benjamites do these things; none of us will allow them to marry our daughters.
