Bible Verse Review

repented: Judges 21:6, Judges 21:17

a breach: 1 Chronicles 13:11, 1 Chronicles 15:13, Isaiah 30:13, Isaiah 58:12

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the people repented them for Benjamin,.... That they had destroyed all their women, and that they had saved no more of the daughters of Jabeshgilead, not a sufficient number to be wives to the Benjaminites:

because the Lord had made a breach in the tribes of Israel; by almost destroying one of them; for though this was done by the Israelites, yet by the permission and according to the will of God, and through his overruling providence.
