judges 3:8 Then the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, so that He sold them into the hands of Cushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia; and the sons of Israel served Cushan-rishathaim eight years.

< Judges 3:7
Judges 3:9 >

      Jud 3:8-11. OTHNIEL DELIVERS ISRAEL.

      8-11. sold them--that is, "delivered them"
      into the hand of Chushan-rishathaim--or, Chushan, "the wicked." This name had been probably given him from his cruel and impious character.
      served Chushan-rishathaim eight years--by the payment of a stipulated tribute yearly, the raising of which must have caused a great amount of labor and privation.
