Jueces 20:41 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 20:41

And when the men of Israel turned again
Turned their faces to the Benjaminites, on whom they had turned their backs; and which they did on hearing the sound of the trumpet, or seeing the flame of the city, or both, and that in order to fight the Benjaminites, and smite them, as now was their opportunity:

the men of Benjamin were amazed;
at this strange and sudden change of things, at the sight of the flame of their city behind them, and at the Israelites turning back to fight them, when they thought themselves sure of victory, as at other times:

for they saw that evil was come upon them;
that they were in the utmost danger, between two fires, as we usually say, liers in wait behind them, which had seized their city and burnt it, and the army of Israel turning upon them with great spirit and resolution.

Jueces 20:41 In-Context

39 los hombres de Israel volverían a la batalla.Cuando los de Benjamín comenzaron a causar bajas entre los israelitas, matando a unos treinta, se decían: «¡Los estamos derrotando, como en la primera batalla!»
40 Pero cuando la columna de humo comenzĂł a levantarse de la ciudad, los de BenjamĂ­n se dieron vuelta y vieron que el fuego de la ciudad entera subĂ­a al cielo.
41 En ese momento atacaron los israelitas, y los hombres de BenjamĂ­n se aterrorizaron al darse cuenta de que la calamidad se les venĂ­a encima.
42 AsĂ­ que huyeron ante los israelitas por el camino del desierto; pero no pudieron escapar de la batalla, pues a los que salĂ­an de las ciudades los abatieron allĂ­.
43 Rodearon a los de Benjamín; los persiguieron y los aplastaron con facilidad en las inmediaciones de Guibeá, hacia el lado oriental.
