In this episode Dennis looks at the life of a biblical character named Abimelech. This short account of a tyrant over the nation of Israel is given to us in Judges chapter 9. This man, the son of a famous judge of Israel, decides to assume the role of king in Israel and ends up being a tyrant. Murdering his brothers and eventually an entire city of his subjects, Abimelech becomes a cautionary tale for us today to "put not our faith in princes." In America, we ought not trust political leaders to bail us out or rule over us. Instead we, as free individuals, need to govern ourselves under the leadership of God. As William Penn famously said, "If we will not be governed by God, we must be governed by tyrants."
