📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurs during Abimelech's violent campaign to secure his rule over Israel, specifically his attack on the city of Shechem that had rebelled against him. The tower of Shechem was likely a fortified area within or near the city, and Berith (also called Baal-berith) was a Canaanite god that the Israelites had begun worshiping despite God's commands. The people were desperately seeking refuge in what they considered their most secure and sacred place.
