* Jerubbaal.
Jud 6:14,32 8:29,35
* Bedan.
Bedan, whose name occurs no where else as a judge of Israel,
Bp. Patrick and others suppose to be a contraction of {ben
Dan,} "the son of Dan;" by which they suppose Samson is meant,
as the Targum reads. The LXX., Syriac, and Arabic, however,
instead of Bedan read Barak; and the two latter versions,
instead of Samuel have Samson. These readings are adopted by
Houbigant, and appear to be genuine; for it is not probable
that Samuel would enumerate himself.
Jud 13:1-16:31
* Jephthah.
Jud 11:1-33
* Samuel.
