Charles Spurgeon Commentary Judges 8:6

"And the princes of Succoth said, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thy hand, that we should give bread unto thine army?" — Judges 8:6 (ASV)

It was as if to say, "What have you done, after all? There are fifteen thousand men with Zebah and Zalmunna, and there are only three hundred of you. You have not even captured the leaders yet."

They forgot that Gideon's band had slain a hundred and twenty thousand already; they underrated and mocked him, and would not give him the help he asked.
