Contextual Overview

34 The Lord told the people to destroy the other nations living in Canaan. But the Israelites did not obey him. 35 They mixed with the other people and did what those people were doing. 36 They began worshiping the false gods those people worshiped. And their idols became a trap. 37 They even offered their own children as sacrifices to demons. 38 They killed their innocent sons and daughters and offered them to the false gods of Canaan. So the land was polluted with the sin of murder. 39 They were unfaithful to him, and they became dirty with the sins of other nations. 40 So the Lord became angry with his people. He rejected those who belonged to him. 41 He gave his people to other nations and let their enemies rule over them. 42 Their enemies controlled them and made life hard for them. 43 He saved his people many times, but they turned against him and did what they wanted to do. His people did many bad things.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Their enemies also oppressed them,.... By taxes, and taking the increase of their fields and sustenance, which often obliged them to cry for a deliverer, who upon this was sent to them; see Judges 2:9.

And they were brought into subjection under their hand; or were humbled under their hand, as the Targum; they were not only made to submit to their enemies, but they were humbled before the Lord; brought to a sense of their sins, and acknowledgment of them, when the Lord appeared for their deliverance, as follows.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Their enemies also oppressed them - Septuagint, “Afflicted them,” They invaded their country; they destroyed their vintages; they laid desolate their land; they made them captives.

And they were brought into subjection - Hebrew, made to bow.
