(22) Had reigned.--The verb is here s-r, not malak, as in Judges 9:6; but whether the change of word is meant to be significant we cannot say. Over Israel--i.e., over all the Israelites who would accept his authority--mainly the central tribes. Verse 22. - Had reigned. The Hebrew word here used is quite a different one from that in vers. 8, 10, 12, 14, and elsewhere, where the reign of a king is designated. It means to exercise dominion, to be a chief or captain over a people. The use of it here suggests that though, as we read in ver. 6, the Canaanite men of Shechem and the house of Millo had made him their king, yet he was not made king by the tribes in general, only he exercised a kind of dominion over them, or over a sufficiently large portion of them to warrant their being called Israel.Parallel Commentaries ...
