And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay;
Los galaaditas tomaron los vados del Jordán antes de que llegaran los efrainitas. Cuando los efrainitas que habían escapado de la batalla trataban de cruzar, los hombres de Galaad le preguntaban a cada uno: '¿Eres efrainita?' Si la persona decía: 'No,'
Los galaaditas controlaron los cruces del río para identificar a los efrainitas que huían.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Judges, the tribes of Israel frequently experienced internal conflicts as they settled in the Promised Land. After Jephthah led the Gileadites to victory against the Ammonites, the Ephraimites felt slighted for not being involved and launched an attack against them. To secure their position, the Gileadites controlled the Jordan River crossings and began interrogating fugitives to identify and capture any Ephraimites trying to escape.
