This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jdg_21:13 And the whole congregation sent [some] to speak to the children of Benjamin that [were] in the rock Rimmon, and to call peaceably unto them.
Ver. 13. And to call peaceably unto them.] God retaineth not his anger forever; - he here graciously provideth for these sinners against their own souls, the remaining Benjamites; - no more must men. The Athenians are justly blamed for this, that their anger was áåéìíçóôïò , long-lasting; memor ira, as Virgil hath it. They hated all barbarians for the Persians’ sake, and forbade them their sacrifices, as they used to do murderers. It is a grievous sin to be implacable, irreconcilable. {Rom_1:31 2Ti_3:3} Men should piece again, and not be as broken glass, that cannot be made whole any more.
