Abimelech was prince over Israel three years.
After Abimelech had reigned over Israel for three years,
When Abimelech had reigned three years over Israel,
And Abimelech was prince over Israel three years.
So Abimelech was chief over Israel for three years.
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
Matthew Henry · Verses 22–29
Abimelech is seated in the throne his father refused. But how long does this glory last? Stay but three years, and see the bramble withered and burned. The prosperity of the wicked is short and fickle. The Shechemites are plagued by no other hand than Abimelech's. They raised him unjustly to the throne; they first feel the weight of his sceptre.
