“But when the people of Israel cried out to the Lord for help, the Lord raised up a rescuer to save them.”
Over and over again, the Lord demonstrated his faithfulness to his covenant (yet wayward) people. He would raise up a warrior-judge to deliver Israel from her enemies and to bring peace to the nation. But a generation would pass —sometimes less— and then the people would turn from the Lord and his ways and the cycle would repeat itself.
Sin is destructive Sin is stupid.
