Giudici 8:9 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 9 And he spoke also unto the men of Penuel
In a threatening way, as he had spoken to the men of Succoth: saying, when I come again in peace: having conquered all his enemies, and delivered Israel from their bondage, and restored peace and prosperity to them, of which he had no doubt:

I will break down this tower;
pointing to it and which stood in their city, and in which they placed their confidence; and when he threatened them, boasted of it as their security.

Giudici 8:9 In-Context

7 E Gedeone rispose: Perciò, quando il Signore mi avrà dato nelle mani Zeba e Salmunna, io vi sminuzzerò le carni con delle spine del deserto, e con triboli.
8 Poi di là egli salì in Penuel, e parlò a que’ di Penuel nella medesima maniera; ed essi gli risposero come que’ di Succot aveano risposto.
9 Ed egli disse parimente a que’ di Penuel: Quando io ritornerò in pace, io disfarò questa torre.
10 Or Zeba e Salmunna, erano in Carcor, co’ lor campi d’intorno a quindicimila uomini, ch’erano tutti quelli ch’erano rimasti di tutto il campo degli Orientali; e i morti erano cenventimila uomini, che potevano trar la spada.
11 E Gedeone salì traendo al paese di coloro che abitano in padiglioni, dal lato orientale di Noba, e di Iogbea; e percosse il campo, il qual se ne stava in sicurtà.
