Tafsiran/Catatan -- Catatan Kata/Frasa (per Ayat)

Haydock: Num 31:9 - Possessions

Possessions. Literally, "all that they could, they plundered." It seems they did not advance very far into the country; or many saved themselves by flight; for we find the Madianites soon powerful enough to enslave the Hebrews, Judges vi. 1.

Gill: Num 31:9 - And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives // and their little ones // and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks // and all their goods

And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives,.... The word "all" is not in the original text, nor should it be supplied; for if all had been taken, and carried captive, and put to death, as those were afterwards, how could there have been such an increase of the Midianites as there was in some time after this? see Jdg 6:1 but the meaning is, that as many as fell into their hands they took and carried captive:

and their little ones; both male and female:

and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks; their oxen and their sheep, and also their asses, as appears by the following account:

and all their goods: in their houses, their wealth and substance, gold, silver, &c.
