1 Samuel 12:11 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

And the LORD sent Jerubbaal, and Bedan, and Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side, and ye dwelled safe.

Bedan. The Septuagint reads Barak; and for "Samuel" some versions read 'Samson,' which seems more natural than that the prophet should mention himself, to the total omission of the greatest of the judges (cf. Hebrews 11:32).
