Context of Judges 20:44
42Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel to the way of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and those who came out of the cities they destroyed in the midst of them. 43Thus they inclosed the Benjamites on all sides, and chased them, and trod them down with ease opposite Gibeah toward the sunrising. And there fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valour. 45And they turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon: and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men; and pursued hard after them to Gidom, and slew two thousand men of them. 46So that all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty and five thousand men that drew the sword; all these were men of valour.
