Judges 21:8
<< Judges 21:8 >>
And they said, "What one is there of the tribes of Israel who did not come up to the LORD at Mizpah?" And behold, no one had come to the camp from Jabesh-gilead to the assembly. (NASB ©1995)

Judges 21:7 "What shall we do for wives for those who are left, since we have sworn by the LORD not to give them any of our daughters in marriage?"

Judges 21:9 For when the people were numbered, behold, not one of the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead was there. (NASB ©1995)


And they said, What one is there of the tribes of Israel that came not up to Mizpeh to the LORD? And, behold, there came none to the camp from Jabeshgilead to the assembly.

Jabesh-gilead This place, as its name imports, was situated at Gilead, east of Jordan. Eusebius and Jerome say it was a great town in their time, standing upon a hill, six miles south from Pella, in the way to Geresa, now Djerash. The {Wady Yabes}, mentioned by Burckhardt, which empties itself into the Jordan, in the neighbourhood of Bisan or Beth-shan (see 1Sa 31:11) and upon which Pliny, 1.v.c.18, for its fine waters,) seems to have taken its name from Jabesh. near this spot, we must therefore look for its site; and the place called Kalaat Rabbad seem to correspond, very nearly, to the spot, though it probably still retains among the Arabs its ancient name. 1Sa 11:1-3 31:11-13 2Sa 2:5,6
