JUDGES 6:1-8:35

AGAIN THE ISRALITES DID EVIL

AND FOR SEVEN YEARS GOD

BECAUSE THE MIDIANITES WERE SO OPPRESSIVE THE ISRAELITES PREPARED SHELTERSFOR THEMSELVES IN MOUNTAIN CLEFTS, CAVES AND STRONGHOLDS

Whenever the ISRAELITES planted their crops the
MIDIANITES and AMALEKITES or other eastern countries would invade the country

They camped on the land and ruined the crops all the way to Gaza and did not spare a living thing for Israel, neither sheep nor cattle and nor donkeys

They came up with their livestock and their tents like swarms of locusts, it was impossible to count the men and their campels; they invaded the land to ravage it

Median so impoverished THE ISRAELITES that they cried out to the lord for and the Lord sent down a prophet who said this is what the Lord God of Israel , says: I brought you up out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery

I snatched you from the power of Egypt and from the hand of all your oppressors. I drove them from before you and gave you their land I said to you their land I said to you I am the Lord your God: Do not worship the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live. But you have not listened to me

After that happened later on Gideon went up to war against THE MIDIANITES and was victorious with the strength of God with him nothing could stop him

• Describe my diagram
• My judges diagram is about a man called Gideon and the ISRAELITES, it explains what the ISRAELITES did and what the lord punished them with and later on Gideon versus the MIDIANITES and defeats them.

A good point in my judge was that Gideon beats the MIDIANITES with the help of God.

A bad point I would say is that the MIDIANITES destroyed israels land and went up against God and Gods people.

A good point about the ISRAELITES would be that they weren't angry at the Lord after all of that and that they went to the Lord for help again that was cool.

A bad point about the ISRAELITES was that they went against the Lord in the first place and did evil in the eyes of the Lord.

I think God is awesome how he still rescued the ISRAELITES at the very end even when they were sinful because though they were sinful he still very much loved them and wanted to protect them at the end and sent Gideon and his troops defeat the MIDIANITES and although Gideon is a scaredy cat he defeats them but he dies later and the ISRAELITES do evil again
