Abimelech is a figure from the Bible that plays an interesting role in the Book of Judges. He is a very controversial figure who is described as a villainous character. This is the son of Gideon, a great judge and hero as we’ve discovered in previous study. The new king sets out on a mission […]

The great judge Gideon is dead. It’s time for Israel to choose a new leader. The book of judges tells the stories of the people who lived in ancient Israel during a period of time when there was no king. In fact, there was no strong leadership. In Judges 9:1-6, the story is about Abimelech, […]

I also wondered what Gideon’s ephod represented when I began this lesson. I’ll share what I found. However, the study is more about putting God first than about an object. The Story of Gideon’s Ephod – The Top of God’s List Are we placing God at the top of our priority list? Today we will […]

In this episode, Gideon is once again challenged – not so much by the force of his enemies, Zebah and Zalmunna but by the refusal of people to help him and his army. In earlier chapters, we saw Gideon as weak and without much faith. Now he is a strong and zealous follower of God. […]

In this Scripture reading, we find that Gideon and the 300 ready for battle and learn a lesson about “impossibility”. Frankly, the Bible never ceases to amaze me. After the angel’s visit, Gideon raised a formidable army in order for Israel to fight the Midianites and Amalekites. But, what does God do? God says to […]

This time, we’ll look at Gideon and the fleece from God in Judges 6. In the last lesson about Gideon we learned how he received the call and questioned God. And now, he’s moved forward into testing. Does this sound familiar? It did to me. Have you and I ever questioned God or asked for […]

In this lesson from the Book of Judges, an angel visits Gideon with a divine message from God. And, what does he do? First, he accuses God of abandonment. But, who left who? When Gideon received his visit from the angel, his first reaction was to question why God had “forsaken” him and his people. […]
