Where it appears

Appears 89 times in the Bible.

• Deuteronomy 32:28 “But Israel is a senseless nation; the people are foolish, without understanding.
• Judges 20:7 Now then, all of you—the entire community of Israel—must decide here and now what should be done about this!”
• 2 Samuel 15:31 When someone told David that his adviser Ahithophel was now backing Absalom, David prayed, “O Lord, let Ahithophel give Absalom foolish advice!”
• 2 Samuel 15:34 Return to Jerusalem and tell Absalom, ‘I will now be your adviser, O king, just as I was your father’s adviser in the past.’ Then you can frustrate and counter Ahithophel’s advice.
• 2 Samuel 16:20 Then Absalom turned to Ahithophel and asked him, “What should I do next?”
• 2 Samuel 16:23 Absalom followed Ahithophel’s advice, just as David had done. For every word Ahithophel spoke seemed as wise as though it had come directly from the mouth of God.
