Matthew Poole and continuators on Judges 6:11

11 ¶ And there came an angel of the LORD, and fate under an oak which was in Ophrah , that pertained unto Joash the Abi-ezrite : and his son Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress , to hide it from the Midianites.

To wit, in Manasseh: for there was another Ophrah in Benjamin, Ios. 18. 23.

Of the Posterity of Abiezer, of whom, see Ios. 17. 2. 1 Chron. 7. 18. See Iudg. 8. 27, 32.

Not with Oxen, as the manner was, Deut. 25. 4. but with a staff to prevent discovery.

In the place where the Winepress stood, not in the common floor.

Marginal references: Heb. 11. 32. called Gideon.; Heb. to cause it to flee.
