Context of Judges 10:13
11The Lord replied, “When the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, the Philistines, 12the Sidonians, the Amalekites and the Maonites oppressed you and you cried to me for help, did I not save you from their hands? But you have forsaken me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you. 14Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you when you are in trouble!” 15But the Israelites said to the Lord, “We have sinned. Do with us whatever you think best, but please rescue us now.”

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 10-18Verses 10-18 God is able to multiply men's punishments according to the numbers of their sins and idols.

Only when the Israelites put aside their foreign gods and served the Lord did he act to save them…Read the comment
