Judges 9:9

Context

Judges 15:5

Context
15:5 He lit the torches 2  and set the jackals loose in the Philistines’ standing grain. He burned up the grain heaps and the standing grain, as well as the vineyards and olive groves.

1 tn Heb “Should I stop my abundance, with which they honor gods and men, and go to sway over the trees?” The negative sentence in the translation reflects the force of the rhetorical question.

2 tn Heb “He set fire to the torches.”
