Jdg_6:8 That the LORD sent a prophet unto the children of Israel, which said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage;
Ver. 8. That the Lord sent a prophet.] Heb., A man, a prophet; therefore not an angel, as Lyra and Comestor fancied. They had repented in part before, but this prophet is sent to stir them up to do it thoroughly. So Act_2:37, those who were before pricked at heart, are yet further excited to "repent, for the remission of sins," &c. {Act_2:38}
