Judges 21:25

²⁵Ebben az időben nem volt király Izráelben; azért mindenki azt cselekedte, a mi jónak látszott az ő szemei előtt.a

Judges 21 concludes the book of Judges with a disturbing account of how the remaining Israelite tribes secured wives for the 600 surviving Benjamite men, preventing the extinction of the tribe. Driven by a rash oath not to give their daughters to Benjamin, and having annihilated most of Jabesh-Gilead for not joining the war, the Israelites orchestrate the abduction of virgins from Shiloh. This chapter highlights the moral decay and chaos that defined Israel “when there was no king in Israel, and everyone did what was right in their own eyes.”
