IDGTC - The 2 Gideons

Judges 8

The difficulty in relating idiocies of the Gideon story to reality are numerous, but if you can understand Gideon’s personal persona versus public persona; the points that I draw out in this podcast will fill in the blanks.

Gideon truly was 2 different individuals and unfortunately his private persona leaked into his public persona in terrible ways; his pursuit of kingship, idolatrous syncretism, not knowing Yahweh and following Him as he (Gideon) chose.

My invitation to you is to read chapters 6-8 again and then read chapter 9 to see what similarities exist in Abemalek’s life and choices and how he may have been influenced by his father.

God bless you all; please let me m kw if you have questions.
