Commentary on Judges 21:2

Theological / Devotional

House of God. Perhaps Shiloh. Some believe that the words should again be translated as the proper name “Bethel” (see on ch. 20:18, 27).

Wept sore. After their fierce anger was gone, the people recognized that they had gone too far in their revenge upon one of their own tribes. How much better it would have been if their weeping had come earlier, before the deed had been done.
