Verse 9
The Israelites had delved deep into depravity, as when the men of Gibeah raped and murdered the visiting Levite’s concubine (Judges 19). This was another occasion in which the Israelites punished one of their own rather than protecting her. The Lord would remember their iniquities and punish their sins. This sin had resulted in war in Israel and almost the obliteration of the tribe of Benjamin (Judges 20). War would come again, and God would almost entirely obliterate all the Israelites for their sins.
