A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 30 is found in chapter 8 of Judges. After Gideon’s death, Israel again prostitutes itself to the Baals and forgets the Lord and the kindness he had shown through Gideon. Gideon’s family history becomes connected with the fragility of collective memory. The people not only abandon God but also forget the concrete acts of deliverance they received. The conclusion prepares the succession conflict involving Abimelech.
