Judges 10:6

6 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served the Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD and served not Him.

Judges 10:6 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 10:6

And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the
Lord
After the death of the above judges they fell into idolatry again, as the following instances show:

and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth;
as they had before, (See Gill on Judges 2:11) (See Gill on Judges 2:13) and, besides these,

also the gods of Syria;
their gods and goddesses, Belus and Saturn, Astarte and the Dea Syria, Lucian writes of:

and the gods of Zidon;
the goddess of the Zidonians was Ashtaroth, ( 1 Kings 11:5 ) and it seems they had other deities:

and the gods of Moab;
the chief of which were Baalpeor and Chemosh, ( Numbers 25:3 ) ( 1 Kings 11:7 )

and the gods of the children of Ammon,
as Milcom or Molech, ( 1 Kings 11:5 1 Kings 11:7 )

and the gods of the Philistines;
as Dagon the god of Ashdod, Beelzebub the god of Ekron, Marnas the god of Gaza, and Derceto the goddess of Ashkalon:

and forsook the Lord, and served not him;
not even in conjunction with the above deities, as Jarchi and others observe; at other times, when they worshipped other gods, they pretended to worship the Lord also, they served the creature besides the Creator; but now they were so dreadfully sunk into idolatry, that they had wholly forsaken the Lord and his worship at the tabernacle, and made no pretensions to it, but entirely neglected it.

Judges 10:6 In-Context

4 And he had thirty sons who rode on thirty ass colts; and they had thirty cities, which are called Havothjair [the villages of Jair] unto this day, which are in the land of Gilead.

5 And Jair died, and was buried in Camon.

6 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served the Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD and served not Him.

7 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and into the hands of the children of Ammon.

8 And that year they vexed and oppressed the children of Israel eighteen years -- all the children of Israel who were on the other side of the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
