**the men** . *Hebrew 'enosh.* App-14 . Those who had not obeyed the summons of [Judges 21:8](../../../kjv/judges/21/8) were extinguished, and their daughters given to remnant of Benjamin. This gave them a claim on Saul, who was a Benjamite.

**a covenant** . Some codices, with Septuagint, Syriac, and Vulgate, read this word in the text, which already implies it.
**right eyes** . As the shield covered the left eye, the right was necessary for seeing. The loss of it incapacitated men from fighting.

**seven days.** A very short respite.
**coasts** = borders.
**man to save us** = saviour.

**behold** . Fig, *Asterismos.* *App-6* *.*

**the Spirit** . Hebrew. *ruach.* App-9 .
**God.** Some codices, with Aramaean, Septuagint, and Vulgate, read " *Jehovah* ". Compare App-4 .
**came** = came mightily. Same word as in [1 Samuel 10:6](../../../kjv/1-samuel/10/6) , [1 Samuel 10:10](../../../kjv/1-samuel/10/10) .

**hewed** . Always used of dividing what is already dead, and mostly of sacrifices.
**messengers** = the messengers.
**the LORD** . Hebrew. *Jehovah* . App-4 .
**with one consent** . Hebrew as one man. Hebrew. *'ish.* App-14 .

**children** = sons.
**men** . Hebrew. *'ish.* App-14 .

**help** = salvation, or deliverance.

**host** = camp.

**sacrificed sacrifices** . Figure of speech *Polyptoton* App-6
