Commentaries on Psalms 83:10
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10Perished at En-dor - This refers to the defeat of the Midianites by Gideon, who were encamped in the valley of Jezreel, at the foot of Mount Gilboa, and near to Tabor, Judges 6:33; Judges 7:1, and consequently in the environs of En-dor. There Gideon attacked and defeated them; and, in various places during their flight, they were destroyed, and left to rot upon the earth. Judges 7:22-25.Read the comment

Let them be made to fear thy name, and perhaps that will bring them to seek thy…Read the comment
