and the Lord, in high displeasure against Israel, left them at the mercy of Chusan-Rasathaim, king of the Mesopotamian land, who for eight years became their master. (Judges 3, 8)
On him the Lord’s spirit fell, and he became the ruler of Israel; he fought, and the Lord gave him victory over the Syrian king Chusan-Rasathaim, whose power he crushed. (Judges 3, 10)
Then, once again, Israel defied the Lord’s will, and he, thus defied, gave them a rival in Eglon king of Moab, (Judges 3, 12)
And for eighteen years the king of Moab was master of Israel. (Judges 3, 14)
And now they cried out to the Lord, and he sent them a fresh champion, a Benjamite called Aod, son of Gera. He was left-handed, and when the Israelites sent him to pay King Eglon their tribute, (Judges 3, 15)
he himself went back all the way from the carved rocks of Galgal, and told the king he had a secret to make known to him. Eglon bade him keep his counsel, and sent all the courtiers out; (Judges 3, 19)
then he made his escape by a postern door.When the king’s servants came and found locked doors they thought he was easing himself, like enough, there in his summer retreat. (Judges 3, 24)
and the Lord put them at the mercy of Jabin, the Chanaanite king who ruled in Asor. The chieftain that commanded his army for him was called Sisara, and lived at Haroseth, in the pale of the Gentiles. (Judges 4, 2)
Small wonder if the Israelites cried out to the Lord against this king that had nine hundred scythed chariots, and for twenty years had grievously oppressed them. (Judges 4, 3)
Sisara, in his flight, made for the tent of Jahel, wife of Haber the Cinite, whose tribe was then at peace with king Jabin of Asor. (Judges 4, 17)
So the Lord, that day, crushed the pride of the Chanaanite king Jabin before the sons of Israel; (Judges 4, 23)
Strange warfare this, of God’s own choosing, when he himself must overthrow the enemy’s ramparts; among the sons of Israel, not one in forty thousand carried shield or spear. (Judges 5, 8)
