In today's reading of Tyndale's OYCSB with featured content written by the CBT team:
- The Lord whittles down Gideon's army in an attempt to win the hearts of His covenant people.
- After Gideon's war victory...which was quite impressive...errr...it was the Lord's victory, the people beg Gideon to rule over them. The result was a deplorable image that became a snare to Gideon and his household.
- AND...Abimelech is made king in Shechem, but his younger brother, Jotham, rebukes Shechem and boldly calls on the Lord to act in judgment.
