Commentary on Judges 2:16

Theological / Devotional

Judges. Their experience makes their name synonymous with “deliverer.” They were champions or leaders whom the Lord called to meet special situations (see Introduction, p. 301). After a period of punishment God would give the Israelites respite by enduing a chosen man with power and leadership sufficient to drive off the oppressors. Later experiences would reveal whether or not the people had learned the lessons from the consequences of their religious apostasy.
