Judges 8-9
Apr. 28th, 2010 09:17 pmGideon dies, the people go worship some other gods (the repeating pattern in Judges repeats again) and all 70 of his children are slaughtered by their cousin.
* Abimelech, Gideon's nephew, is a nastier man than his uncle, and he tries to cover up the fact that a woman killed him by getting his armour bearer to finish him off with a sword before he dies from his massive head trauma. The fact that this event is in the bible just shows that his attempt was a failure.
