Judges 1-3

The Fight Against the Canaanites


Judah and Simeon Fight Against the Canaanites

[34] Then the Amorites pressed the sons of Dan into the hill country, for they did not allow them to come down to the valley;
[35] and the Amorites persisted in living in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim; but the hand of the house of Joseph became heavy, and they became forced labor.
[36] Now the border of the Amorites ran from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upward.
[Jdg 1:34-36 LSB]


The Angel of Yahweh Speaks to Israel


[2] and as for you, you shall cut no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall tear down their altars.' But you have not listened to My voice; what is this you have done? [3] "Therefore I also said, 'I will not drive them out before you; but they will become [as thorns] in your sides, and their gods will become a snare to you.'" 
[Jdg 2:2-3 LSB]

Joshua’s Death and Burial

[10] And all that generation also were gathered to their fathers; and there arose another generation after them who did not know Yahweh or even the work which He had done for Israel. [Jdg 2:10 LSB]

Israel Serves Baals


Yahweh Raises Up Judges

[20] So the anger of Yahweh burned against Israel, and He said, "Because this nation has trespassed against My covenant which I commanded their fathers and has not listened to My voice, 
[21] I also will no longer dispossess before them any of the nations which Joshua left when he died, [22] in order to test Israel by them, whether they will keep the way of Yahweh to walk in it as their fathers did, or not." 
[Jdg 2:20-22 LSB]

Yahweh Tests Israel

[5] Now the sons of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; 
[6] and they took their daughters for themselves as wives and gave their own daughters to their sons and served their gods. 
[Jdg 3:5-6 LSB]
