Shìshījì 8:32 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 8:32

And Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age
Having lived it seems forty years after his war with Midian, blessed with a large family, much wealth and riches, great credit and esteem among his people, and in favour with God and men:

and was buried in the sepulchre of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the
Abiezrites;
a city which belonged to the family of the Abiezrites, who were of the tribe of Manasseh, in which Gideon lived, and his father before him; and where there was a family vault, in which he was interred. In the days of this judge it is supposed ^F13 was the famous expedition of the Argonauts to Colchis, to fetch from thence the golden fleece.
