TSK · Judges 13:1

Othniel: A Model Leader The Israelites did evil in the LORD’s sight. They forgot the LORD their God and worshiped the Baals and the Asherahs.

Oppression and Confrontation The Israelites did evil in the LORD’s sight, so the LORD turned them over to Midian for seven years.

The LORD was furious with Israel and turned them over to the Philistines and Ammonites.

Be strong and act like men, you Philistines, or else you will wind up serving the Hebrews the way they have served you! Act like men and fight!”

But there is little hope for you ever doing good, you who are so accustomed to doing evil. Can an Ethiopian change the color of his skin? Can a leopard remove its spots?
