George Leo Haydock, on Judg 3:9

“And they cried to the Lord, who raised them up a saviour, and delivered them, to wit, Othoniel the son of Cenez, the younger brother of Caleb:”

“Saviour. “We must remark, that the man by whom God grants us safety, is styled a saviour,” (St. Augustine, q. 18,) though Christ is the proper and principal Saviour. (Worthington) — Caleb. Septuagint, “the younger son of Cenez, who was the brother of Caleb.” (Haydock) — Othoniel was one of the ancients. If he could not prevent the people from falling into idolatry, he rescued them from it. (Calmet)”
