SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:3
Porque cuando los de Israel habían sembrado, subían los madianitas, y amalecitas, y los demás orientales. Subían contra ellos,
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Judges 6:3
Verse 3. Children of the East] Probably those who inhabited Arabia Deserta, Ishmaelites.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 3. And so it was, when Israel had sown , etc.] Their land, and it was grown up, and near being ripe, or quite; for the Midianites gave them no disturbance in the winter, and during seedtime, when they came out of their lurking holes, and manured their land, and sowed it: that the Midianites came up ; into the land of Canaan, from the other side Jordan, where their country lay, and which it seems lay lower than the land of Israel: and the Amalekites, and the children of the east : the former were implacable enemies of Israel, and on every occasion would join other nations in oppressing them; and the children of the east were Arabians, as Josephus expressly affirms: even they came up against them ; all these three sorts of people in a confederacy.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-6 - Israel's sin was renewed, and Israel's troubles were repeated. Let all that sin expect to suffer. The Israelites hid themselves in dens an caves; such was the effect of a guilty conscience. Sin dispirits men The invaders left no food for Israel, except what was taken into the caves. They prepared that for Baal with which God should have bee served, now God justly sends an enemy to take it away in the seaso thereof.
