Judges 15:20

18 Then he became very thirsty; so he cried out to the Lord and said, ^a“You have given this great deliverance by the hand of Your servant; and now shall I die of thirst and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?”

19 So God split the hollow place that is in¹ Lehi, and water came out, and he drank; and ^ahis spirit returned, and he revived. Therefore he called its name² En Hakkore, which is in Lehi to this day.

20 And ^ahe judged Israel ^btwenty years ^cin the days of the Philistines.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Judges 15:19

Judges 16:1 >>

He judged - That is, he pleaded their cause, and avenged them against the Philistines. Of the Philistines - That is, whilst the Philistines had the power and dominion, from which he was not fully to deliver, but only to begin to deliver them. From this place it is manifest, that in the computation of the times of the judges, the years of servitude or oppression are not to be separated from the years of the judges, but added to them, and are comprehended within them; which proposition is of great importance for clearing this difficult part of scripture - chronology.
