Judges 8:4

Gideon Tracks Down the Midianite Kings

8:4 Now Gideon and his three hundred men had crossed over the Jordan River, and even though they were exhausted, they were still chasing the Midianites. ¹ 

Judges 18:11

18:11 So six hundred Danites, fully armed, set out from Zorah and Eshtaol. ² 

Judges 18:16

18:16 Meanwhile the six hundred Danites, fully armed, stood at the entrance to the gate. ³ 

[8:4]  ¹ tn Heb “And Gideon arrived at the Jordan, crossing over, he and the three hundred men who were with him, exhausted and chasing.” The English past perfect (“had crossed”) is used because this verse flashes back chronologically to an event that preceded the hostile encounter described in vv. 1-3. (Note that 7:25 assumes Gideon had already crossed the Jordan.)

[18:11]  ² tn Heb “They journeyed from there, from the tribe of the Danites, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, six hundred men, equipped with weapons of war.”

[18:16]  ³ tn Heb “And the six hundred men, equipped with the weapons of war…from the sons of Dan.”
