Richtere 12:8 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 12:8

And after him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
] There were two Bethlehems, one in the tribe of Zebulun, ( Joshua 19:15 ) of which some think this man was; and another in the tribe of Judah, the city of Jesse and David, and of the Messiah; and Josephus says F24, Ibzan was of the tribe of Judah, of the city of Bethlehem; and because Boaz was of the same place, and lived in the times of the judges, the Jewish Rabbins F25 are of opinion that he is the same with Ibzan; so Jarchi and Ben Gersom.

Richtere 12:8 In-Context

6 Zo zeiden zij tot hem: Zeg nu Schibboleth; maar hij zeide: Sibbolet, en kon het alzo niet recht spreken; zo grepen zij hem, en versloegen hem aan de veren van de Jordaan, dat te dier tijd van Efraim vielen twee en veertig duizend.
7 Jeftha nu richtte Israel zes jaren; en Jeftha, de Gileadiet, stierf, en werd begraven in de steden van Gilead.
8 En na hem richtte Israel Ebzan, van Bethlehem.
9 En hij had dertig zonen; en hij zond dertig dochteren naar buiten, en bracht dertig dochteren van buiten in voor zijn zonen; en hij richtte Israel zeven jaren.
10 Toen stierf Ebzan, en werd begraven te Bethlehem.
