The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Judges 2:1-5

The Reproof of the Angel of the Lord v. 1. And an Angel of the Lord, that is, the Angel of the Lord, who is equal to the Lord in essence, who had brought up Israel out of Egypt and led them to the Land of Promise, came up from Gilgal, where He had revealed Himself to Joshua as the Prince of the host of Jehovah, to Bochim, a place where the representatives of the people were assembled at that time, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, the speaker thus expressly identifying Himself... read more

Judges A SUMMARY OF ISRAEL’S FAITHLESSNESS AND GOD’S PATIENCE Jdg_2:1 - Jdg_2:10 . The Book of Judges begins a new era, the development of the nation in its land.

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Judges 2:1-5

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 2:1-23

The fact of Israel's failure is still further revealed in this chapter. In the first five verses we have the account of the coming of a messenger from Gilgal. This messenger, referred to as "the angel of the Lord," may have been a prophet, for the word rendered "angel" may with equal accuracy be rendered messenger. On the other hand it may have been a special divine and angelic personality. There was an assembly of the people at Bochim. For what purpose we are not told, but the message... read more

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

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Judges 2:1

An angel of the Lord: either, first, A created angel. Or, secondly, A prophet or man of God, for such are sometimes called angels, which signifies only messengers of God; and then the following words are spoken by him in the name of God, as may easily be understood. Or, thirdly, Christ, the Angel of the covenant, who is oft called the Angel of the Lord, as we have formerly seen, to whom the conduct of Israel out of Egypt, and through the wilderness, and into Canaan, here spoken of, is... read more
