1. Judges 6:14 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

Is there any validity to what the Septuagint has here?

Judges 6:14 (ESV)

14 And the LORD turned to him and said, “Go in this might of yours and save Israel from the hand of Midian; do not I send you?”

The Septuagint has “the angel of the Lord,” like we read in Judges 6:11–12. But this has next to no support in the copies of the Hebrew text.
