| Worshiping Idols |
Judges 2:6 – 3:6
The tribes of Israel are now in the land promised them by God. But, like us, they can easily be distracted by idols that are more visible than the generous but not always in-your-face God.
Judges recounts how the people of God tried, not very successfully, to organize themselves to keep up their end of the covenant. It lays the groundwork for the rise of the monarchy in later books. And it raises the issue for me of instant gratification versus remaining constant in our promises to follow God.
How can we remain faithful all the time?
