📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Judges, Israel was in a cycle of disobedience to God, which repeatedly led to their oppression by surrounding nations as a form of divine discipline. Here, Eglon, the king of Moab, formed an alliance with the Ammonites and Amalekites to invade and defeat Israel, capturing the City of Palm Trees, which is commonly understood to be Jericho. This event occurred during a time when Israel had turned to idolatry, illustrating the biblical pattern of sin leading to subjugation.
