<< Judges 3:14   Judges 3:16 >>


Judges 3:15

But when the children of Israel cried unto the Lord, the Lord raised them up a deliverer - The very same words as are used at Judges 3:9. See, too, Judges 2:16, Judges 2:18, and Nehemiah 9:27.

Ehud "the Benjamite" was of the family or house of Gera II Samuel 16:5, the son of Bela, Benjamin' s first-born, born before Jacob' s descent into Egypt Genesis 46:21, and then included among "the sons of Benjamin." The genealogy in I Chronicles 8:6 intimates that Ehud (apparently written Abihud in Judges 3:3) became the head of a separate house.

Left-handed - See the margin. The phrase is thought to describe not so much a defect as the power to use left and right hands equally well (compare Judges 20:16; I Chronicles 12:2).

A present - i. e. tribute II Samuel 8:2, II Samuel 8:6; I Kings 4:21; Psalms 72:10. The employment of Ehud for this purpose points him out as a chief of some distinction. He would be attended by a numerous suite Judges 3:18. We may conclude that the destruction of the Benjamites Judg. 20 had not taken place at this time.
