Shamgar and Ehud are a study in contrasts: Ehud is Hebrew, Shamgar is Canaanite; Ehud smote a people of the land, Shamgar a people of the sea; Ehud struck one head, Shamgar 600 bodies; Ehud used a weapon for intimate and personal assassination, Shamgar a tool for impersonal killing at arm’s length. There is a clear picture here of the progression of the power and peace of the gospel from Israel to the nations, from Jesus to the Church, from reformer to evangelist, and from warrior to worker.
