Story in this passage
Israel fights Benjamin
Israel gathers at Mizpah and hears the Levite describe the crime at Gibeah. Benjamin refuses to surrender the offenders, and three days of battle follow. After two costly defeats, Israel fasts, receives assurance, sets an ambush, and nearly destroys Benjamin, leaving six hundred survivors at Rimmon.
- Setting
- Mizpah, Gibeah, and the wilderness around the rock of Rimmon. The catalog reference includes a malformed ending, but the passage content centers on Judges 20.
- Main events
- The tribes unite, Benjamin resists, Israel suffers losses, inquires again, and defeats Benjamin through an ambush.
- Why it matters
- The response to Gibeah becomes a civil war that almost destroys an entire tribe.
This overview paraphrases the cited passage in the World English Bible.
