John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Judges 9:18

Ye have slain — Abimelech's fact is justly charged upon them, as done by their consent, approbation and assistance. Maidservant — His concubine, whom he so calls by way of reproach. Over Shechem — By which limitation of their power, and his kingdom, he reflects contempt upon him, and chargeth them with presumption, that having only power over their own city, they durst impose a king upon all Israel.
