Judges 6 - Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible

Israel rebuked by a prophet.

They cried to God for a deliverer, and he sent them a prophet to teach them. When God furnishes a land with faithful ministers, it is a token that he has mercy in store for it. He charges them with rebellion against the Lord; he intends to bring them to repentance. Repentance is real when the sinfulness of sin, as disobedience to God, is chiefly lamented. (Jdg 6:11-24)
