Jueces 9:22 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 9:22

When Abimelech had reigned three years over Israel.
] The people in general consenting to what the men of Shechem had done, at least not opposing it, all being desirous of a king, and therefore put up with a mean person, rather than have none; though it is amazing they should, and that they had not rose up as one man against Abimelech, and avenged the blood of the sons of Gideon, who had been so useful and serviceable to them; it is indeed said that he reigned over all Israel, and his reign, such as it was, was very short, as is often the case with wicked princes.

Jueces 9:22 In-Context

20 Y si no, salga fuego de Abimelec y consuma a los habitantes de Siquem y de Bet-milo; y salga fuego de los habitantes de Siquem y de Bet-milo y consuma a Abimelec.
21 Entonces Jotam escap贸 y huy贸, y se fue a Beer y permaneci贸 all铆 a causa de su hermano Abimelec.
22 Y rein贸 Abimelec tres a帽os sobre Israel.
23 Pero Dios envi贸 un esp铆ritu de discordia entre Abimelec y los habitantes de Siquem; y los habitantes de Siquem procedieron p茅rfidamente con Abimelec,
24 para que viniera la violencia hecha a los setenta hijos de Jerobaal, y recayera la sangre de ellos sobre su hermano Abimelec que los mat贸, y sobre los habitantes de Siquem que fortalecieron las manos de 茅l para matar a sus hermanos.
