Commentary on Judges 21:11

Theological / Devotional

Every woman. Every inhabitant was to be destroyed except single girls of marriageable age. The other members of the families were in actuality no more guilty than these girls. The whole ruthless procedure, though carried out under the guise of fulfilling a sacred oath to the Lord, was but a brutal expedient to prevent the extinction of the tribe of Benjamin.
