Judges 3:31
3:31 a Shamgar is nowhere specifically identified as an Israelite or as a judge (see 5:6-7 b).• son of Anath: Anath was perhaps a Canaanite goddess or shrine (cp. 1:33 c, “Beth-anath”); from similar references in ancient literature, some have seen him as part of a Canaanite warrior class.
