Judges 12:3 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Put my life — That is, I exposed myself to the utmost danger; as a man that carries a brittle and precious thing in his hand, which may easily either fall to the ground, or be snatched from him. Wherefore — Why do you thus requite my kindness in running such hazards to preserve you and yours?

Judges 12:3

3 And when I saw that ye delivered me not, I put my life in my hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand: wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?
