Back to Treasury of Scripture Knowledge


Back to Judges'


the elders.

Judg 8:7; Prov 10:13; Prov 19:29; Ezra 2:6

thorns.

Mic 7:4

taught. Heb. made to know.

Instead of {wyyod�} Houbigant, Le Clerc, and others read {wyyadosh,} "and he tore or threshed;" and this is not only agreeable to what Gideon threatened (Judg 8:7), but is supported by the LXX. Vulgate, Chaldee, Syriac, and Arabic.

The Hebrew text might easily have been corrupted simply by the change of [Sh�n,] {shin,} into ['Ayin,] {ayin,} letters very similar to each other.
