The Oppression of the Philistines and Amorites v. 6. And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord, this being some fifty years after the death of Gideon, and served Baalim and Ashtaroth, the male and female deities of the Canaanites, whose service Gideon had overthrown, and the gods of Syria, or Aram, whose king had been defeated by Othniel, and the gods of Zidon, or Phenicia, and the gods of Moab, whom Ehud had smitten, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Judges 10:1-16

Inveterate Idolatry Judges 10:1-16 The scene is now removed to the tribes across the Jordan, especially those settled, in Gilead and its vicinity. The children of Ammon were the aggressors, and acquired such boldness as even to cross the Jordan and fight against Judah and Ephraim. “Israel was sore distressed.” Almost spontaneously we say, “Surely it served them right.” It seems incredible that, after all they had suffered on account of their idolatry, they should again relapse to Baal, and... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Judges 10:1-18

Following the death of Abimelech there seems to have been a period of forty years' quietness under the dictatorship of Tola and Jair. After this there appears to have broken out a period characterized by an almost utter abandonment of the people to idolatry. The list of the forms which this idolatry took is appalling. Judgment came this time through the Philistines and the men of Ammon and continued for eighteen years. At last, sore distressed, they cried to God, and for the first time in... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 10:7-8

Judges 10:7-8 a. ‘And the anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the children of Ammon, and that year they vexed and oppressed the children of Israel.’ This is a general description before each will be dealt with in full detail, the Ammonites first. The Philistines in the west on the coastal plain and the Ammonites in east Transjordan had Israel trapped in between them. The writer informs us that this was because... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 10:9

‘ And the children of Ammon passed over Jordan, to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, so that Israel was sore distressed.’ This indicates the power of this king of Ammon. He was strong enough not only to afflict the tribes east of the Jordan but also to make incursions west of the Jordan, and attack the larger tribes there. Indeed he may have done this periodically. His main aim there was tribute and booty, but east of Jordan it was also an... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 10:10

‘ And the children of Israel cried to Yahweh, saying, “We have sinned against you, both because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baalim.” Once again oppression brought the children of Israel to their senses. But this time they were to find out that His attitude had hardened. Those who go on sinning in the face of His mercy find eventually that the way back is harder. The mention of the Baalim shows that this was still their central sin, common to them all, and it was probably... read more

Judges 10:6-Job : . Introduction to the Story of Jephthah.— In this section we see the hand of D, and hear the recurrent notes of sin, suffering, repentance, and deliverance. Judges 10:7 . The reference to the Philistines seems to be out of place, unless the section is meant to serve as an introduction to Samson’ s as well as Jephthah’ s exploits. Judges 10:8 . Text faulty: “ eighteen years” should probably stand at the end of Judges 10:7, and Judges 10:8 should perhaps read “ and they vexed... read more

Or, that year they had vexed and oppressed the children of Israel eighteen years. Or, they vexed them in that year, that was the eighteenth year, to wit, of that vexation. This was the eighteenth year from the beginning of that oppression. And these eighteen years are not to be reckoned from Jair’s death, because that would enlarge the time of the judges beyond the just bounds, as may appear from 1 Kings 6:1; nor from Jephthah’s beginning to reign, because he reigned but six years, and in the... read more
