Commentary on Judges 20:12

Theological / Devotional

Through all the tribe. Before resorting to force, the assembly expostulated with the tribe of Benjamin, urging them to recognize the enormity of the sin committed, and to deliver up the guilty men that they might be put to death. It was a fair proposition. Those that were guilty ought to pay the penalty for their misdeeds.
