    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 2, 2019
     | 1,355 views

    The war having ended, Gideon disbanded his army, and retired to his own house; not that he lived altogether a private life there, but he continued as a judge in Israel, where he was successful in preserving and maintaining their religion and liberties.

    Chapter 35 He Died In Honor [Judges 8.29-8.32] GIDEON'S LONG LIFE; HIS DEATH AND BURIAL Scripture 29And Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and dwelt in his own house. 30And Gideon had threescore and ten sons of his body begotten: for he had many wives. 31And his concubine that was in ...read more

    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 18, 2019
     | 2,155 views

    It seems that as soon as Gideon was dead that they put off the worship of Jehovah God and turned to worship foreign gods; particularly, the local Baal gods.

    Chapter 36 Gideon and his God Were Soon Forgotten By an Ungrateful Israel [Judges 8.33-8.35] Scripture 33 And it came to pass, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baalberith their god. 34 And the children of Israel ...read more

    Lesson: 37: Abimelech King Of Shechem Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 20, 2019
     | 4,026 views

    At first glance, it might appear that this pitiful tale of the scoundrel Abimelech is unimportant. However, the events of this chapter came very near to being the end of the nation of Israel.

    Chapter 37 Abimelech King of Shechem [Judges 9.1-9.6] Scripture 1 And Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem unto his mother's brethren, and communed with them, and with all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying, 2 Speak, I pray you, in the ears of all the ...read more

     | 2,763 views

    Gideon, as a valiant general, was pursuing the remaining Midianites, and bravely following up on his first blow which brought a very great slaughter to the enemy: dead were 120,000 men.

    Chapter 28 The Cynical [Judges 8.5-8.9] Scripture 5Then he said to the men of Succoth, “Please give loaves of bread to the people who follow me, for they are exhausted, and I am pursuing Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian.” 6And the leaders of Succoth said, “Are the hands of Zebah and ...read more

    Jotham was not condemning the monarchy itself, but was to a certain extent pointing out that Abimelech was a worthless person."

    Chapter 38 Jotham’s Fable [Judges 9.7-9.15] Scripture 7 And when they told it to Jotham, he went and stood in the top of mount Gerizim, and lifted up his voice, and cried, and said unto them, Hearken unto me, ye men of Shechem, that God may hearken unto you. 8 The trees went forth on a ...read more

     | 1,189 views

    This rebellious speech by Gaal was reported to Abimelech by the town-prefect Zebul, who sent messengers to him, either through deceit or secrecy or both, not allowing anyone to know that he sent them.

    Chapter 42 Abimelech Appraised of Gaal’s Move [Judges 9.30-9.33] Scripture: Judges 9:30-33 (KJV) 30 And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was kindled. 31 And he sent messengers unto Abimelech privily, saying, Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed ...read more

    Gaal Driven Out Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 21, 2020
     | 1,615 views

    There is nothing surprising about what is related here. The drunken celebration of the previous night had left Gaal and his men both mentally and physically unprepared for any kind of effective military activity, and Abimelech and his army easily defeated them.

    Chapter 43 Gaal Driven Out [Judges 9.34-9.41] Scripture: Judges 9:34-41 (KJV) 34 And Abimelech rose up, and all the people that were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies. 35 And Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entering of the gate of the ...read more

     | 1,725 views

    The citizens of Shechem were apparently in their fields for the purpose of tending their crops, and very probably without weapons of any kind. People could be seen going in and out of the city gate to support those harvesting the grapes. Abimelech slew them.

    Chapter 44 Destruction of Shechem [Judges 9.42-9.45] Scripture: Judges 9:42-45 (KJV) 42 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech. 43 And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field, and ...read more
