Judges 21:1

600 Brides for 600 Brothers

21:1 The Israelites had taken an oath in Mizpah, saying, “Not one of us will allow his daughter to marry a Benjaminite.”

Judges 1:13

1:13 When Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, ¹  captured it, Caleb ²  gave him his daughter Acsah as a wife.

Judges 11:34

11:34 When Jephthah came home to Mizpah, there was his daughter hurrying out ³  to meet him, dancing to the rhythm of tambourines. ⁴  She was his only child; except for her he had no son or daughter.

[1:13]  ¹ tn “Caleb’s younger brother” may refer to Othniel or to Kenaz (in which case Othniel was Caleb’s nephew; so CEV).

[1:13]  ² tn Heb “he”; the referent (Caleb) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[11:34]  ¹ tn Heb “Look! His daughter was coming out.”

[11:34]  ² tn Heb “with tambourines and dancing.”
