Do unto them as unto the Midianites, etc.] In the times of Gideon, who destroyed one another, trod in whose destruction the hand of the Lord was very visible, (<070720>Judges 7:20-22), and much in the same manner was the confederate army of the Moabites, Ammonites, and others, destroyed in the times of Jehoshaphat, (<142020>2 Chronicles 20:20,23,24), as to Sisera, as to Jabin: Jabin was a king of Canaan, who oppressed Israel, and Sisera was his general; the latter was slain by a woman, Jael, the wife of Heber; and the former the hand of Israel prevailed against, until they destroyed him, (<070402>Judges 4:2,21,22,24), the great victory which they obtained over them was at the brook of Kison, or “Kishon”, (<070407>Judges 4:7 5:21) with this compare (<142016>2 Chronicles 20:16).
