Jueces 6:7-10

7 Y cuando los hijos de Israel clamaron al SEÑOR a causa de Madián,

8 el SEÑOR envió a los hijos de Israel un profeta que les dijo: Así dice el SEÑOR, Dios de Israel: "Fui yo el que os hice subir de Egipto, y os saqué de la casa de servidumbre.

9 "Os libré de la mano de los egipcios y de la mano de todos vuestros opresores; los desalojé delante de vosotros, os di su tierra,

10 y os dije: 'Yo soy el SEÑOR vuestro Dios. No temeréis a los dioses de los amorreos en cuya tierra habitáis.' Pero no me habéis obedecido."

Jueces 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.
