Judges 5:30 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Have they not sped? have they [not] divided the prey; to every man a damsel [or] two; to Sisera a prey of divers colours, a prey of divers colours of needlework, of divers colours of needlework on both sides, [meet] for the necks of [them that take] the spoil?

Ver. 30. Have they not sped?] Yes, they are sped, they have their passport, and your hopes hop headless.

To every man a damsel or two.] The Hebrew word signifieth, vulvam vel uterum; so they call the Israelitish damsels by way of contempt, as Lavater observeth.
