Wesley's Notes

8:17 Slew the men of the city - Not all of them; probably those only who had affronted him.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

8:13-17 The active servants of the Lord meet with more dangerous opposition from false professors than from open enemies; but they must not care for the behaviour of those who are Israelites in name, but Midianites in heart. They must pursue the enemies of their souls, and of the cause of God, though they are ready to faint through inward conflicts and outward hardships. And they shall be enabled to persevere. The less men help, and the more they seek to hinder, the more will the Lord assist. Gideon's warning being slighted, the punishment was just. Many are taught with the briers and thorns of affliction, who would not learn otherwise.


Judges 8:9 So he spoke also to the men of Penuel, saying, "When I return safely, I will tear down this tower." (NASB ©1995)
