Jueces 9:53 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 9:53

And a certain woman cast a piece of a millstone
Of the upper millstone, as the word signifies, which is observed by Jarchi and other Jewish commentators; this with other stones being carried up to the top of the tower, to do what execution they could with them: and a woman observing Abimelech making up to the door of the tower, took up this piece of millstone, and threw it down

upon Abimelech's head, and all to break his skull;
she did it with that view, though it may as well be rendered, or "she", or "it broke his skull" F18; it made a fracture in it, which was mortal. Abendana observes, and so others, that that was measure for measure, a righteous retaliation, that as he had slain seventy of his brethren on one stone, he should die by means of a stone.

Jueces 9:53 In-Context

51 En medio de aquella ciudad había una torre fuerte, a la cual se retiraron todos los hombres y mujeres, y todos los señores de la ciudad; y cerrando tras sí las puertas, subieron al techo de la torre
52 Y vino Abimelec a la torre, y combatiéndola, llegó a la puerta de la torre para prenderle fuego
53 Mas una mujer dejó caer un pedazo de una rueda de molino sobre la cabeza de Abimelec, y le quebró el cráneo
54 Y luego él llamó a su escudero, y le dijo: Saca tu espada y mátame, para que no se diga de mí: Una mujer lo mató. Y su escudero le atravesó, y murió
55 Y cuando los israelitas vieron muerto a Abimelec, se fueron cada uno a su casa
