This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jdg_2:5 And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there unto the LORD.
Ver. 5. And they called the name of that place Bochim,] i.e., Weepers. As they had formerly filled God’s bag with their sins; so now they help as fast to fill God’s bottle with their tears. Their hearts were as so many Hadadrimmons. {Zec_12:11}
“ Sic faciles motus mens generosa capit. ”
And they sacrificed there unto the Lord.] In testimony of their faith in Christ’s merits (for they mourned not desperately) and their thankfulness that God had sent them a preacher, and not an executioner, considering their deserts.
