Commentaire sur Les Juges 6:32
וַיִּקְרָא־ל֥וֹ בַיּוֹם־הַה֖וּא יְרֻבַּ֣עַל לֵאמֹ֑ר יָ֤רֶב בּוֹ֙ הַבַּ֔עַל כִּ֥י נָתַ֖ץ אֶֽת־מִזְבְּחֽוֹ׃ (פ)
Gédéon fut à cette occasion, surnommé Jérubbaal, c’est-à-dire que Baal s’en prenne à lui, pour avoir démoli son autel.
Rashi on Judges
Fight against him. Against Gidon. In relation to רַיב, "fight", the proper term is עִם, or אֶת, or בּוֹ, "with" [him], as in "he fought with Lavan".22Bereishis, 31:36. However, לוֹ, lit. "to", is not the proper term. Every לוֹ mentioned here is interpreted as "for his sake."
