Judges 4:2 meaning and explanation
So the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor. The commander of his forces was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth-hagoyim.
Judges 4:2, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
The narrator reports that after Ehud's death Israel again did evil, and God responded by handing them over to Jabin, a Canaanite king reigning at Hazor in the north. The Hebrew verb translated "sold" pictures Israel as property transferred to a master; the oppressor's power is real, but it is not outside God's governance.
