Judges 8:8 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 8:8

And he went up thence to Penuel
A place not far from Succoth, and to which also Jacob gave name, from the Lord's appearing to him there face to face, ( Genesis 32:30 ) but here was nothing of God in this place now:

and spoke unto them likewise;
desired bread for his men, as he had of the inhabitants of Succoth:

and the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered
him;
denied him his request in the same jeering manner.

Judges 8:8 In-Context

6 responderunt principes Soccoth forsitan palmae manuum Zebee et Salmana in manu tua sunt et idcirco postulas ut demus exercitui tuo panes

7 quibus ille ait cum ergo tradiderit Dominus Zebee et Salmana in manus meas conteram carnes vestras cum spinis tribulisque deserti

8 et inde conscendens venit in Phanuhel locutusque est ad viros eius loci similia cui et illi responderunt sicut responderant viri Soccoth

9 dixit itaque et eis cum reversus fuero victor in pace destruam turrem hanc

10 Zebee autem et Salmana requiescebant cum omni exercitu suo quindecim milia enim viri remanserant ex omnibus turmis orientalium populorum caesis centum viginti milibus bellatorum et educentium gladium
