Wesley's Notes

2:3 The judge - The governor that is, every one of them.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

3. the judge-the chief magistrate, the supreme source of justice. "King" not being used, it seems likely a change of government had before this time substituted for kings, supreme judges.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

2:1-8 The evil passions of the heart break out in various forms; but the Lord looks to our motives, as well as our conduct. Those that deal cruelly, shall be cruelly dealt with. Other nations were reckoned with for injuries done to men; Judah is reckoned with for dishonour done to God. Judah despised the law of the Lord; and he justly gave them up to strong delusion; nor was it any excuse for their sin, that they were the lies, the idols, after which their fathers walked. The worst abominations and most grievous oppressions have been committed by some of the professed worshippers of the Lord. Such conduct leads many to unbelief and vile idolatry.

Job 12:21 "He pours contempt on nobles And loosens the belt of the strong.

Psalm 2:10 Now therefore, O kings, show discernment; Take warning, O judges of the earth.

Psalm 141:6 Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock, And they hear my words, for they are pleasant.

Isaiah 40:23 He it is who reduces rulers to nothing, Who makes the judges of the earth meaningless.

Amos 5:7 For those who turn justice into wormwood And cast righteousness down to the earth."

Amos 5:12 For I know your transgressions are many and your sins are great, You who distress the righteous and accept bribes And turn aside the poor in the gate.
