Judges 2:7-10; 3:1-4
the generation after Joshua:
- they did not know the LORD (2:10)
- they did not know the work which He had done for Israel (2:10)
As a result:
- they did evil in the sight of the LORD (2:11)
- they served the Baals (2:11)
- they forsook the LORD (2:12)
- the provoked the LORD to anger (2:12)
- God delivered them into the hands of the plunderers (2:14)
- He sold them into the hands of their enemies (2:14)
- they would not listen to the judges raised up by the LORD (2:17)
- they played the harlot with other gods (2:17)
- they turned quickly from the way in which their fathers walked (2:17)
Oh, what a difference a vital, "knowing" relationship with the Lord, makes.
