Wesley's Notes for Judges 20:47

20:45 Gleaned - That is, a metaphor from those who gather grapes or corn so clearly and fully, that they leave no relicks for those who come after them.

20:46 Twenty and five thousand - Besides the odd hundred expressed ver.#35|, but here only the great number is mentioned, the less being omitted, as inconsiderable. Here are also a thousand more omitted, because he speaks only of them who fell in that third day of battle.

20:48 Turned again - Having destroyed those that came to Gibeah, and into the field, now they follow them home to their several habitations. Men - Comprehensively taken, so as to include women and children. If this seem harsh and bloody, either it may be ascribed to military fury; or perhaps it may be partly justified, from that command of God in a parallel case, #Deut 13:15|, and from that solemn oath by which they had devoted to death all that came not up to Mizpeh, chap.#21:5|, which none of the Benjamites did.
