Jueces 9:52 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 9:52

And Abimelech came unto the tower
With his army to besiege it:

and fought against it;
using all the methods he could to oblige those in it to surrender:

and went hard unto the door of the tower to burn it with fire;
in order to get entrance into it; and perhaps the tower was built of stone, so that no other part could be set fire to; and to do this he drew near to the door himself, for nothing more is meant by the phrase, "went hard", than drawing near in his own person to the door; hazarding his life in the enterprise, being so bent upon it, thinking to do by this tower what he had done to the hold of the temple of Baalberith.

Jueces 9:52 In-Context

50 Despu茅s Abimelec se fue a Tebes; y puso cerco a Tebes, y la tom贸.
51 En medio de aquella ciudad hab铆a una torre fuerte, a la cual se retiraron todos los hombres y mujeres, y todos los se帽ores de la ciudad; y cerrando tras s铆 las puertas , se subieron al techo de la torre.
52 Y vino Abimelec a la torre, y combati茅ndola, lleg贸 a la puerta de la torre para pegarle fuego.
53 Mas una mujer dej贸 caer un pedazo de una rueda de molino sobre la cabeza de Abimelec, y le quebr贸 los cascos.
54 Y luego 茅l llam贸 a su escudero, y le dijo: Saca tu espada y m谩tame, para que no se diga de m铆: Una mujer lo mat贸. Y su escudero le atraves贸, y muri贸.
