Judges 10:13

13 But you have gone away from me and served other gods, so I won't rescue you anymore!

Judges 10:13 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 10:13

Ye have forsaken me, and served other gods
Since they had been so remarkably saved, time after time, and delivered from so many powerful enemies, which was dreadful ingratitude:

wherefore I will deliver you no more;
which is not to be understood absolutely, since after this he did deliver them, but conditionally, unless they repented of their idolatries, and forsook them. This is said to bring them to a sense of their sin and danger.

Judges 10:13 In-Context

11 The LORD replied to the Israelites, "When the Egyptians, Amorites, Ammonites, Philistines,
12 Sidonians, Amalekites, and Maonites oppressed you and you cried out to me, didn't I rescue you from their power?
13 But you have gone away from me and served other gods, so I won't rescue you anymore!
14 Go cry out to the gods you've chosen. Let them rescue you in the time of your distress."
15 The Israelites responded to the LORD, "We've sinned. Do to us whatever you see as right, but please save us this time."
