Study
18 From the Book of Judges is: Judges 21
With
this study we end the book of Judges and tomorrow we will delve into
the book of 1 Peter.
1.
The tribes recognized after their victory that in the heat of the
moment they had gone too far in making the vow of 21:1. The sense of
unity of the tribe was in danger of extinction, in spite of the fact
that they had suffered severely at the hand of Benjamin . How did
they solve their dilemma? Did they keep, or break their second vow
(21:5)? Would you condone the action they took in verses 10:12 and
19-23? What does the whole story suggest with regard to the taking of
vows?
2.
To what does the writer attribute this weak and unhappy condition of
things in Israel? Do you consider this an adequate explanation of the
moral and spiritual condition of Israel? If not, what would you add?
