Were numbered - "How does this agree with the following numbers? For all that were slain of Benjamin were twenty - five thousand and one hundred men, Jdg 20:35, and there were only six hundred that survived, Jdg 20:47, which make only twenty - five thousand and seven hundred." The other thousand men were either left in some of their cities, where they were slain, Jdg 20:48, or were cut off in the two first battles, wherein it is unreasonable to think they had an unbloody victory: and as for these twenty - five thousand and one hundred men, they were all slain in the third battle. Judges 20:16
