Shamgar
   The Philistines from the maritime plain had made incursions into
   the Hebrew upland for the purposes of plunder, when one of this
   name, the son of Anath, otherwise unknown, headed a rising for
   the purpose of freeing the land from this oppression. He
   repelled the invasion, slaying 600 men with an "ox goad" (q.v.).
   The goad was a formidable sharpointed instrument, sometimes ten
   feet long. He was probably contemporary for a time with Deborah
   and Barak (Judg. 3:31; 5:6).
