On this verse

Their repentance and humiliation for sin, their prayers and reformation, and the mercy they found with God thereupon,

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Others make them to commence at the death of Jair, which seems the more probable because that part of Israel which was most infested by the Ammonites was Gilead, Jair's own country, which we cannot suppose to have suffered so much while he was living, but that part at least would be reformed and protected.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

And these eighteen years are not to be reckoned from Jair's death, because that would enlarge the time of the Judges beyond the just bounds; but from the fourth year of Jair's reign: so that the greatest part of Jair's reign was contemporary with this affliction.
