Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 6:30

‘ Then the men of the city said to Joash, “Bring out your son, that he may die, because he has broken down the altar of Baal, and because he has cut down the Asherah-image that was by it.” ’ No doubt they had checked up first on the fact that it was not under Joash’s orders. Then they demanded Gideon’s death. He had committed a gross act of sacrilege. This was ironic for according to Israelite law it was they who should have been put to death (Deuteronomy 13:6-10). This and what follows... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 6:31

‘ And Joash said to all that stood against him, “Will you plead for Baal? Or will you save him? He who will plead for him, let him be put to death, while it is yet morning. If he is a god, let him plead for himself, because one has broken down his altar.” ’ Joash replied cleverly and revealed all his experience as a leader of men. He did not argue the point. He charged them with similar sacrilege to that with which they were charging his son. “Will you plead for Baal? Or will you save him?”... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 6:32

‘ Therefore on that day he called him Jerubbaal, saying, “Let Baal plead against him, because he has broken down his altar.” ’ Joash was a man of remarkable good sense who probably had little faith in Baal’s ability to act. By renaming his son Jerubbaal (‘let Baal plead’ or ‘’let the lord plead’) he accomplished a number of things. Firstly he satisfied the angry crowds. It seemed to them that he had responded to them and put a curse on his son, and they were satisfied and eagerly awaited the... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 6:1-6

Judges 6:1-Joshua : . The Depredations of the Midianites.— D, whose phrases occur in Judges 6:1 f., Judges 6:6, sees in the ebb and flow of Israel’ s fortune an index of their moral and spiritual condition. National suffering he regards as the punishment of national sin; the hand of Midian is in a sense the hand of God; yet, while he blames, he cannot help sympathising. Judges 6:2 . Dens, caves, and mountain fastnesses were the only refuges for peaceful citizens, fleeing in terror from hearth... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 6:7-10

Judges 6:7-2 Samuel : . A second writer (probably E) introduces a prophet who reproves Israel for disloyalty and ingratitude to Yahweh their God. The brief speech is a torso. Reflective rather than prophetic, it opens impressively, but ends abruptly, like a sermon without application; and then one of the main traditions begins. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 6:11-24

Judges 6:11 . On the angel of Yahweh see Judges 2:1, Genesis 16:7 *. For “ oak” read “ terebinth.” While the primitive Semites were animists, the Israelites came to associate Yahweh’ s own presence with sacred trees (p. 100, Genesis 18:1). Judges 6:12. With the assurance “ Yahweh is with thee” cf. the faith grandly expressed in the name Immanuel, “ God is with us” ( Isaiah 7:14). On hearing the words “ Yahweh is with thee,” Gideon replies, “ Oh, my lord, if Yahweh is with us” (used five... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Judges 6:25-32

Judges 6:25-Jonah : . The Destruction of the Altar of Baal.— We have seen that after the Conquest Yahweh was reverently and innocently called the Baal (Lord) of the land, and that loyal Israelites gave their children Baal names. The present section, in which the Baal of Ophrah is distinguished from Yahweh, and regarded as a heathen god, must have been written after the time of Hosea, who was the first to condemn the practice of applying the name Baal to the God of Israel ( Hosea 2:17) . ... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Judges 6:1

For although the generality of the Midianites had been cut off by Moses about two hundred years ago, yet many of them doubtless fled into the neighbouring countries, whence afterwards they returned into their own land, and in that time might easily grow to be a very great number; especially when God furthered their increase, that they might be a fit scourge for his people Israel when they transgressed. read more
