Notes

Judges 3:24–25

As the king's servants hesitated over how to handle a king with bowel issues, Ehud made his escape.

Judges 3:12–30

In this epic story of intrigue and cleverness, Ehud showed bravery when a group of nations from east of the Jordan invaded the hill country of Ephraim and Benjamin. The story uses a familiar pattern and emphasizes the people's repeated turning away from their faith.
