1. Judges 11:3 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

What does the term “worthless fellows” recall?

Judges 11:3 (ESV)

3 Then Jephthah fled from his brothers and lived in the land of Tob, and worthless fellows collected around Jephthah and went out with him.

The narrator with this term invites the reader to compare Jephthah with Abimelech (Judges 9:4).
