- Jerubbaal:
- that is, Let Baal plead, "And the LORDª sentª°¹ Jerubbaal,ª and Bedan,ª and Jephthah,ª and Samuel,ª and deliveredª° you out of the handª¹ of your enemiesª° on every side,ª¹ and ye dwelledª° safe.ª" {1Sm 12:11} + "Who¹ smoteª°¹ Abimelechª the sonª of Jerubbesheth?ª did not¹ a womanª castª° a pieceª of a millstoneª upon¹ him from¹¹ the wall,ª that he diedª° in Thebez?ª why¹ went ye nighª°¹ the wall?ª then sayª° thou, Thy servantª Uriahª the Hittiteª is deadª° also.¹" {2Sm 11:21}, Jerubbesheth, that is, Let the shameful thing plead, "For¹ [according to] the numberª of thy citiesª were¹ thy gods,ª O Judah;ª and [according to] the numberª of the streetsª of Jerusalemª have ye set upª° altarsª to [that] shameful thing,ª [even] altarsª to burn incenseª° unto Baal.ª" {Jer 11:13} + "I foundª° Israelª like grapesª in the wilderness;ª I sawª° your fathersª as the firstripeª in the fig treeª at her first time:ª [but] they¹ wentª° to Baalpeor,ª and separated²° themselves¹ unto [that] shame;ª and [their] abominationsª were¹ according as they loved.ª°" {Hsa 9:10}
