Judges 3:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Judges 3:17

15 But when the children of Israel ^acried out to the Lord, the Lord raised up a deliverer for them: Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a ^bleft-handed man. By him the children of Israel sent tribute to Eglon king of Moab.

16 Now Ehud made himself a dagger (it was double-edged and a cubit in length) and fastened it under his clothes on his right thigh.

17 So he brought the tribute to Eglon king of Moab. (Now Eglon was a very fat man.)

18 And when he had finished presenting the tribute, he sent away the people who had carried the tribute.

19 But he himself turned back ^afrom the stone images that were at Gilgal, and said, “I have a secret message for you, O king.” He said, “Keep silence!” And all who attended him went out from him.
