Commentary -- Verse Notes / Footnotes

NET Notes: Jdg 2:16

¹ tn Or more traditionally, “judges” (also in vv. 17, 18 [3x], 19). Since these figures carried out more than a judicial function, also serving as rulers and (in several instances) as military commanders, the translation uses the term “leaders.”

² tn Heb “and they delivered them from the hand of the ones robbing them.”
