Judges 18:24 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

My gods which I made Or, rather, my god, as the Hebrew word generally signifies, meaning the image, which he considered as a symbol of God's presence with him; for he could not be so stupid as to think it to be the great Jehovah, who made heaven and earth, and whom he professed to worship, but merely as a medium through which he offered up his worship to him, as many of the heathen did. What have I more? I value nothing I have in comparison of what you have taken away.

Wo unto us, if He depart. For what have we more?

Judges 18:24
