And they turned and fled toward the wilderness unto the rock of Rimmon: and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men; and pursued hard after them unto Gidom, and slew two thousand men of them.
Los sobrevivientes se dieron vuelta y huyeron hacia el desierto, a la peña de Rimón. Mientras huían por los caminos, los perseguidores alcanzaron y mataron a cinco mil hombres más. Los persiguieron sin descanso hasta Gidom, donde mataron a otros dos mil.
Los benjaminitas que sobrevivieron fueron perseguidos implacablemente, perdiendo miles más mientras huían hacia el desierto.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Judges, this verse is part of a civil war between the tribes of Israel and the tribe of Benjamin, triggered by the horrific rape and murder of a Levite's concubine in the city of Gibeah, which belonged to Benjamin. The other tribes demanded justice, leading to a series of battles where the Benjamites were overwhelmingly defeated after initial resistance. As the surviving Benjamites fled toward the rock of Rimmon in the wilderness, the pursuing Israelites continued to strike them down along the highways and at Gidom, illustrating the brutal consequences of unchecked sin and tribal conflict.
