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

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 9-18Verses 9-18 All who oppose the kingdom of Christ may here read their doom.

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