Gill's Notes on the Bible
And an angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim,.... The Targum calls him a prophet y; and the Jewish commentators in general interpret it of Phinehas z; and that a man is meant is given into by others, because he is said to come from a certain place in Canaan, and not from heaven, and spoke in a public congregation, and is not said to disappear; but neither a man nor a created angel is meant, or otherwise he would have spoken in the name of the Lord, and have said, "thus saith the Lord", and not in his own name; ascribing to himself the bringing of the children of Israel out of Egypt, and swearing to them, and making a covenant with them, and threatening what he would do to them because of their sin; wherefore the uncreated Angel, the Angel of the covenant, is meant, who brought Israel out of Egypt, was with them in the wilderness, and introduced them into the land of Canaan, and appeared to Joshua as the Captain of the Lord's host at or near Gilgal, Joshua 5:13; and because he had not appeared since, therefore he is said to come from thence to a place afterwards called Bochim, from what happened at this time:
and said, I made you to go out of Egypt; that is, obliged Pharaoh king of Egypt to let them go, by inflicting plagues upon him and his people, which made them urgent upon them to depart:
and I have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; into the land of Canaan, now for the most part conquered, and divided among them, and in which they were settled:
and I said, I will never break my covenant with you; if the covenant between them was broken, it should not begin with him, it would be their own fault; all which is mentioned, as so many instances of divine goodness to them, and as so many aggravations of their sins against God.
y So Maimonides, Moreh Nevochim, par. 1. c. 15. & par. 2. c. 6. z The Rabbins in Maimon. Moreh Nevochim, par. 2. c. 42.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The angel of the Lord (not an angel). - The phrase is used nearly 60 times to designate the Angel of Godâs presence. See Genesis 12:7 note. In all cases where âthe angel of the Lordâ delivers a message, he does it as if God Himself were speaking, without the intervening words âThus saith the Lord,â which are used in the case of prophets. (Compare Judges 6:8; Joshua 24:2.)
When the host of Israel came up from Gilgal in the plain of Jericho, near the Jordan Joshua 4:19 to Shiloh and Shechem, in the hill country of Ephraim, the Angel who had been with them at Gilgal Exodus 23:20-23; Exodus 33:1-4; Joshua 5:10-15 accompanied them. The mention of Gilgal thus fixes the transaction to the period soon after the removal of the camp from Gilgal, and the events recorded in Judges 1:1-36 (of which those related in Judges 1:1-29 took place before, and those in Judges 1:30-36, just after that removal). It also shows that it was the conduct of the Israelites, recorded in Judges 1:0 as in Joshua 16:1-10; Joshua 17:0, which provoked this rebuke.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER II
An angel comes to the Israelites at Bochim, and gives them
various reproofs, at which they are greatly affected, 1-5.
They served the Lord during the days of Joshua, and the elders
who succeeded him, 6, 7.
Joshua having died, and all that generation, the people revolted
from the true God and served idols, 8-13.
The Lord, being angry, delivered them into the hands of
spoilers, and they were greatly distressed, 14, 15.
A general account of the method which God used to reclaim them,
by sending them judges whom they frequently disobeyed, 16-19.
Therefore God left the various nations of the land to plague and
punish them, 20-23.
NOTES ON CHAP. II
Verse Judges 2:1. An angel of the Lord — In the preceding chapter we have a summary of several things which took place shortly after the death of Joshua; especially during the time in which the elders lived (that is, the men who were contemporary with Joshua, but survived him,) and while the people continued faithful to the Lord. In this chapter, and some parts of the following, we have an account of the same people abandoned by their God and reduced to the heaviest calamities, because they had broken their covenant with their Maker. This chapter, and the first eight verses of the next, may be considered as an epitome of the whole book, in which we see, on one hand, the crimes of the Israelites; and on the other, the punishments inflicted on them by the Lord; their repentance, and return to their allegiance; and the long-suffering and mercy of God, shown in pardoning their backslidings, and delivering them out of the hands of their enemies.
The angel of the Lord, mentioned here, is variously interpreted; some think it was Phinehas, the high priest, which is possible; others, that it was a prophet, sent to the place where they were now assembled, with an extraordinary commission from God, to reprove them for their sins, and to show them the reason why God had not rooted out their enemies from the land; this is the opinion of the Chaldee paraphrast, consequently of the ancient Jews; others think that an angel, properly such, is intended; and several are of opinion that it was the Angel of the Covenant, the Captain of the Lord's host, which had appeared unto Joshua, Judges 5:14, and no less than the Lord Jesus Christ himself. I think it more probable that some extraordinary human messenger is meant, as such messengers, and indeed prophets, apostles, c., are frequently termed angels, that is, messengers of the Lord. The person here mentioned appears to have been a resident at Gilgal, and to have come to Bochim on this express errand.
I will never break my covenant — Nor did God ever break it. A covenant is never broken but by him who violates the conditions of it: when any of the contracting parties violates any of the conditions, the covenant is then broken, and by that party alone and the conditions on the other side are null and void.
