📚 Contexto Histórico
In the era of the Judges, Israel was a loosely organized group of tribes without a king, often drifting into idolatry and away from God's commands due to weak leadership. The tribe of Dan, struggling to claim their allotted land, stole a carved idol from a man named Micah and set it up in their newly conquered city of Laish, which they renamed Dan. Jonathan, a descendant of Gershom (and the text mentions Manasseh, likely referring to a lineage connected to Moses), served as priest for this idol, reflecting the broader problem of religious compromise during this turbulent period.
