Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass on the morrow,.... The day after the battle:
that the people went out into the field; some think to fight, and try the event of another battle, in order to be freed from Abimelech, but that seems not so likely: rather to finish their vintage, as Josephus l, or to till their ground, to plough and sow, which quickly came on after the vintage was ended; find this they might do the more securely, since Abimelech had withdrawn himself and his forces to his place of habitation, and so concluded he would not soon at least return to them; and the rather they might think he would be more easy, with then, since Gaal was thrust out from among them:
and they told Abimelech; or it was told Abimelech, that the people came out into the field, and so an opportunity offered to him to come and cut them off, as they were at their business unarmed.
l Antiqu. l. 5. c. 7. sect. 4.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
After Gaal’s expulsion, “the people went out into the field,†either to complete the vintage, or for some other agricultural operation. “They†(Zebul and his party) sent word of this to Abimelech.
