10 I quali furono sconfitti in Endor, E furono per letame alla terra.

Salmi 83:10 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 83:10

Which perished at Endor
Aben Ezra and Kimchi understand this of the Midianites; but rather it is to be understood of Jabin and Sisera, and the army under them, who perished at this place, which is mentioned along with Taanach and Megiddo, ( Joshua 17:11 ) , which are the very places where the battle was fought between Jabin and Israel, ( Judges 5:19 ) according to Jerom ^F9, it was four miles from Mount Tabor to the south, and was a large village in his days, and was near to Nain, the place where Christ raised the widow's son from the dead, ( Luke 7:11 ) ( 1 Samuel 28:7 )

they became as dung for the earth;
being unburied, they lay and rotted on the earth, and became dung for it; see ( Jeremiah 8:2 ) , or were trodden under foot, as dung upon the earth; so the Targum,

``they became as dung trodden to the earth.''

Salmi 83:10 In-Context

8 Gli Assiri eziandio si son congiunti con loro; Sono stati il braccio de’ figliuoli di Lot. Sela.

9 Fa’ loro come tu facesti a Madian; Come a Sisera, come a Iabin, al torrente di Chison;

10 I quali furono sconfitti in Endor, E furono per letame alla terra.

11 Fa’ che i lor principi sieno come Oreb e Zeeb; E tutti i lor signori come Zeba, e Salmunna;

12 Perciocchè hanno detto: Conquistiamoci gli abitacoli di Dio.
