Then answered the five men that went to spy out the country of Laish, and said unto their brethren, Do ye know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a graven image, and a molten image? now therefore consider what ye have to do.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 14 is found in chapter 18 of Judges. The Danites set out armed and return to Micah’s house. They steal the image, ephod, and other religious objects. When the Levite protests, they offer him the opportunity to become priest of an entire tribe rather than serving one family. He accepts. The scene reveals how religious office can become subordinate to prestige, power, and political opportunity.
