Commentary on Judges 18:25

Theological / Devotional

Angry fellows. Literally, “men bitter of soul,” that is, men of fierce dispositions and hot tempers. The Danites said in effect, “Do not bother us with your complaints lest you provoke hot-tempered men among us to attack you.” See 2 Sam. 17:8, where the temper of David and his companions was compared to a she-bear robbed of her cubs.
