7 Now it came about when the sons of Israel cried to the LORD on account of Midian,
8 that the LORD sent a prophet to the sons of Israel, and 1he said to them, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'It was I who brought you up from Egypt and brought you out from the house of slavery.
9 'I delivered you from the hands of the Egyptians and from the hands of all your oppressors, and dispossessed them before * you and gave you their land,
10 and I said to you, "I am the LORD your God; you 2shall not fear the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live. But you have not obeyed * Me.""'

Judges 6:7-10 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO JUDGES 6

In this chapter we have an account of the distressed condition Israel was in through the Midianites, Jud 6:1-6, of a prophet being sent unto them to reprieve them for their sins, Jud 6:7-10 of an angel appearing to Gideon, with an order to him to go and save Israel out of the hands of the Midianites, Jud 6:11-16 and of a sign given him by the angel, whereby he knew this order was of God, Jud 6:17-24, and of the reformation from idolatry in his father's family he made upon this, throwing down the altar of Baal, and building one for the Lord, Jud 6:25-32, and of the preparation he made to fight the Midianites and others, Jud 6:33-35, but first desired a sign of the Lord, that Israel would be saved by his hand, which was granted and repeated, Jud 6:36-40.
