他 们 在 隐 多 珥 灭 亡 , 成 了 地 上 的 粪 土 。

Contextual Overview

9 God, do to them what you did to Midian, what you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River. 10 They died at Endor, and their bodies rotted on the ground. 11 Do to their important leaders what you did to Oreb and Zeeb. Do to their princes what you did to Zebah and Zalmunna. 12 They said, "Let's take for ourselves the pasturelands that belong to God." 13 My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff blown away by the wind. 14 Be like a fire that burns a forest or like flames that blaze through the hills. 15 Chase them with your storm, and frighten them with your wind. 16 Cover them with shame. Then people will look for you, Lord . 17 Make them afraid and ashamed forever. Disgrace them and destroy them. 18 Then they will know that you are the Lord , that only you are God Most High over all the earth.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Which perished at Endor,.... Aben Ezra and Kimchi understand this of the Midianites; but rather it is to be understood of Jabin and Sisera, and the army under them, who perished at this place, which is mentioned along with Taanach and Megiddo, Joshua 17:11, which are the very places where the battle was fought between Jabin and Israel, Judges 5:19 according to Jerom i, it was four miles from Mount Tabor to the south, and was a large village in his days, and was near to Nain, the place where Christ raised the widow's son from the dead, Luke 7:11

they became as dung for the earth; being unburied, they lay and rotted on the earth, and became dung for it; see Jeremiah 8:2, or were trodden under foot, as dung upon the earth; so the Targum,

"they became as dung trodden to the earth.''

i De locis Hebraicis, fol. 88. L. and 91. E.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Which perished at En-dor - Endor is not particularly mentioned in the history of the transaction in the book of Judges, but it is known that Endor was in the vicinity of Mount Tabor, and there is no improbability in the tradition which has fixed the site of the battle at or near Endor. The word or name “En-dor” means properly fount of the dwelling (or, habitation), and was probably given at first to a spring or fountain near to which some distinguished or well-known person dwelt. It is mentioned in Joshua 17:11; 1 Samuel 28:7.

They became as dung for the earth - The land was enriched or made fertile by their flesh, their blood, and their bones, as the field of Waterloo was by that of the slain, or as fields of battle commonly are.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 83:10. Perished 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.
