Judges 9:1

JUDGES CHAPTER 9 Abimelech, Gideon's son, by conspiracy with the Shechemites, and the murder of his brethren, Jotham the youngest escaping, is made king, Judges 9:1. Jotham by a parable rebuketh them, and foretelleth their ruin: he flees and dwells at Beer, Judges 9:7. The Shechemites conspire against Abimelech, Judges 9:22. Gaal joins himself to the Shechemites, Judges 9:26. Zebul reveals it, Judges 9:30. Betrayeth Gaal, Judges 9:34. Abimelech overcometh them, and soweth the city with salt, Judges 9:39. Sets the tower on fire; also the hold of the god Berith, Judges 9:46. He subdues Thebez: going near to the tower to burn it, a woman casts down a piece of a mill-stone on his head, and breaks his skull, Judges 9:50. He commands his armour-bearer to thrust him through, Judges 9:54. Jotham's curse is fulfilled, Judges 9:56,57. No text from Poole on this verse.
