📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Judges, Israel was repeatedly falling into idolatry and facing oppression from enemies like the Midianites as a consequence of their unfaithfulness to God. Gideon, a man from the tribe of Manasseh, was called by God to lead Israel against these oppressors, beginning with the bold act of tearing down his father's altar to Baal. This defiance not only marked a turning point in Gideon's life but also challenged the false gods of the surrounding cultures, leading to his new name, Jerubbaal, which meant "Let Baal plead against him."
