Judges 2:20

"But when the judge was dead, they turned back, and dealt more corruptly than their fathers in following other gods to serve them and to bow down to them. They didn’t cease what they were doing, or give up their stubborn ways."

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

This verse is connected withJudges 2:13. The intermediate verses refer to much later times; they have the appearance of being the reflections of the compiler interspersed with the original narrative. ButJudges 2:20catches up the thread only to let it fall immediately. All that follows, down to the end ofJudges 3:7, seems to be another digression, closing with words like those ofJudges 2:13. It does not appear how this message was given to Israel, whether by Angel, or prophet, or Urim, nor indeed is it certain whether any message was given.
