Judges6:24

24 Then Gideon built an altar there unto the LORD, and called it [illegible: 1+ letters]ehovah-shalom : unto this day it is yet in Ophrah of the Abi-ezrites.

To wit, on the top of the Rock, as is evident from v. 20. and especially from v. 26. where that which is here expressed onely in general, and by anticipation, is more particularly described, according to the usage of the Scripture.

i. e. The Lords peace; the sign or witness of Gods speaking Peace to me, and to his People: or the place where he spake Peace to me, when I expected nothing but Destruction.

Marginal references: That is, the Lord send peace.
