See commentary on Judges 15:18-20.

Judges 15:20

He judged — That is, he pleaded their cause, and avenged them against the Philistines. Of the Philistines — That is, whilst the Philistines had the power and dominion, from which he was not fully to deliver, but only to begin to deliver them. From this place it is manifest, that in the computation of the times of the judges, the years of servitude or oppression are not to be separated from the years of the judges, but added to them, and are comprehended within them; which proposition is of great importance for clearing this difficult part of scripture — chronology.
