On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

The bent to backslide is with great difficulty restrained. The common ill effects of a long peace. The land had rest eighty years, which should have confirmed them in their religion; but, on the contrary, it made them secure and wanton, and indulgent of those lusts which the worship of the false gods was calculated for the gratification of.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

This was the severest oppression to which Israel had been subjected. But it fell heaviest on the tribes in the north, and it was not till after a grinding servitude of twenty years that they were awakened to view it as the punishment of their sins and to seek deliverance from God.
