Judges 3:31

3:31

Shamgar <08044> [Shamgar.]

oxgoad <04451 01241> [an ox goad.]

This implement, Mr. Maundrell informs us, in Palestine and Syria is of an extraordinary size. He measured several, and "found them about eight feet long; and at the bigger end about six inches in circumference. They were armed at the lesser end with a sharp prickle for driving the oxen; and at the other end with a small paddle of iron, strong and massive, for cleansing the plough from the clay. In the hand of a powerful man such an instrument must be more dangerous and fatal than a sword."

delivered <03467> [also.]

Israel <03478> [Israel.]

"So part is called Israel."

"It seems to concern only the country next to the Philistines."
