In this Bible Story, God hears the cries of Israel as he did once in Egypt. Only now, instead of sending Moses, he sends his judges, mighty heroes of great courage, Othniel and Ehud. This story is inspired by Judges 2-3. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.

Today's Bible verse is Judges 3:9 from the King James Version.

Episode 60: Joshua and his generation had passed and with them, faithfulness to God. In their comfort and peace, the people of Israel abandoned God. So God gave them over to the consequences of their sinful lifestyle and they found themselves under the oppressive rule of Cushan. As they cried out under their burden God sent rescuers, the first of which was named Othniel. But after they were free from their burden they went back to their life of sin. Let’s learn the valuable lesson of faithfulness and of God’s power and heart to rescue as we listen.
