Jump to Previous Bethlehem Beth-Lehem Ibzan Israel Judge Judged Judgeth LedJump to Next Bethlehem Beth-Lehem Ibzan Israel Judge Judged Judgeth LedJudges 12 1. The Ephraimites, quarrelling with Jephthah, are slain by the Gileadites7. Jephthah dies 8. Ibzan, who had thirty sons, and thirty daughters 11. and Elon 13. and Abdon, who had forty sons, and thirty nephews, judge Israel After Jephthah This phrase marks a transition in the narrative of the Book of Judges, indicating a shift in leadership. Jephthah was a Gileadite who led Israel to victory over the Ammonites, but his tenure was marked by personal tragedy and conflict with the Ephraimites. The phrase "After Jephthah" suggests a new chapter in Israel's history, emphasizing the cyclical nature of leadership and the ongoing need for deliverance and governance in Israel. It reminds us of the transient nature of human leadership and the enduring sovereignty of God. Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel Of Beth-lehem.--Usually assumed, as by Josephus (Antt. v. 7, ? 13), to be Bethlehem in Judah. There are, however, two reasons against the identification: (1) That Bethlehem is even in this book distinguished as Bethlehem Judah (Judges 17:7; Judges 17:9; Ruth 1:2; 1Samuel 17:12), or Bethlehem Ephratah (Micah 5:1); (2) Judah seems at this epoch to have stood entirely aloof from the general life of the nation. There was a Bethlehem in Zebulon (Joshua 19:15), and as the next judge was a Zebulonite (Judges 12:11), and that tribe had been recently powerful and prominent (Judges 4:10; Judges 5:18), it may be the town here intended. . . . Verse 8. - Ibzan of Bethlehem. It is uncertain whether Bethlehem of Judah is meant, or Bethlehem in the tribe of Zebu-lun, mentioned in Joshua 19:15. Josephus says that Ibzan was of the tribe of Judah, and of the city of Bethlehem, and some have supposed a connection between the names of Boaz and Ibzan. ' But as Bethlehem of the tribe of Judah is generally called Bethlehem of Judah, or Bethlehem-Ephratah, and as Elon and Abdon were judges in North-East Israel, it is perhaps more probable that Bethlehem of Zebulun is meant. Dr. Robinson has identified it with a village - a "very miserable one" - called Beit Lahm, six miles west of Nazareth.Parallel Commentaries ...
