Jueces 20:22 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 20:22

And the people, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves
That though they had lost a great number of men, yet still their forces were large and greatly superior to those of Benjamin, and above all their cause was good:

and set their battle again in array
formed a line of battle again facing their enemy, inviting to another battle, and bidding defiance:

and in the place where they put themselves in array the first day;
by which it seems they kept the field of battle; though they lost so many men, they did not flee before the children of Benjamin, but stood their ground; nor were they so superstitious as to fancy the place unlucky; nor was it a bad situation they were in, to which their want of success was owing, for then they would have changed it.

Jueces 20:22 In-Context

20 salieron a luchar contra los de Benjamín, y frente a Guibeá se dispusieron contra ellos en orden de batalla.

21 Pero los de Benjamín salieron de Guibeá y abatieron aquel día a veintidós mil israelitas en el campo de batalla.

22 Los israelitas se animaron unos a otros, y volvieron a presentar batalla donde se habían apostado el primer día,

23 pues habían subido a llorar en presencia del SEÑOR hasta el anochecer, y le habían consultado:—¿Debemos subir y volver a luchar contra los de Benjamín, nuestros hermanos?Y el SEÑOR les había contestado:—Suban contra ellos.

24 Fue así como los israelitas se acercaron a Benjamín el segundo día.
