TSNTyndale Study Notes:

21:15-17 The people felt sorry for Benjamin: Israel was concerned about the brokenness of the nation.
• The gap in Israel was an act of the Lord, because the war against Benjamin had been a response to the Lord’s covenant.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) Benjamites

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said elders the,congregation what? do for_those,left for,wives that/for/because/then/when destroyed of,Benjamin woman/wife )

This refers to the descendants of Benjamin. See how you translated this in Judges 3:15.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) the women of Benjamin have been killed

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said elders the,congregation what? do for_those,left for,wives that/for/because/then/when destroyed of,Benjamin woman/wife )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “we killed all the Benjamite women”
