Judges 1:18 - Treasury of Scripture Knowledge - Bible Study & Commentary

Verse 18

Joshua 11:22, Joshua 13:3, Joshua 15:45-2 Corinthians :, 1 Samuel 6:17

Also Judah: There is the following remarkable variation here in the Septuagint:

בי ןץך וךכחסןםןלחףום ןץהבע פחם &בזבם ןץהו פב ןסיב בץפחע; ןץהו פחם &ףךבכשםב ןץהו פב ןסיב בץפחע; ךבי פחם &ךךבסשם ןץהו פב ןסיב בץפחע; פחם &זשפןם ןץהו פב נוסיףנןסיב בץפחע. But Judah did not possess Gaza, nor the coasts thereof; nor Askelon, nor the coasts thereof; nor Ekron, nor the coasts thereof; nor Ashdod, nor the coasts thereof." Procopius and Augustine read the same; and Josephus - Ant. 1. v. c. 2 sec. 4 says that the Israelites only took Askelon and Ashdod, but not Gaza or Ekron; and from Judges 3:3, and the whole succeeding history, it appears that these cities were not in the possession of the Israelites, but of the Philistines.

Gaza: Judges 3:3, Judges 16:1, Judges 16:2, Judges 16:21, Exodus 23:31

Reciprocal: 1 Samuel 5:10 - God to Ekron Obadiah 1:19 - the plain

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

The Treasury of Scripture Knowledge was, and still is, a Bible reference work first published around 1830, created by the London publisher Samuel Bagster (1772-1851). It is a set of cross-references. That is, it consists entirely of a book-length listing of cross-references, showing only the chapter and verse citations with no accompanying text. About the size of a complete Bible, the TSK is also organized like a Bible, beginning at Genesis and ending at Revelation. Each verse of the Bible is cross-referenced to several others to enable the reader to gain a true sense of each word and phrase as it is used in the Bible.But the Treasury of Scripture Knowledge is usually described as being the work of R. A. Torrey. Most editions you can buy these days have Torrey's name on the cover, and sometimes in the title: R. A. Torrey's Treasury of Scripture Knowledge. According to commen knowledge, Torrey did not specifically try to claim authorship of the reference book, but he did become one of its chief promoters, and as his own fame rose, his endorsement of the book mattered to more and more people. Inevitably his name ended up on the cover. But if you read his introduction to the book, often printed inside, you see that he describes having first encountered it "some twenty years ago."Originally printed in a 700+ page book and now enhanced with two-way cross-referencing, this entire reference is available to you on StudyLight.org....

Torrey from references in Thomas Scott's Commentary and the Comprehensive Bible. With nearly 500,000 cross-references it is the most thorough source available.... Show more
