📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Judges, Gideon was a leader raised by God to deliver Israel from the oppression of the Midianites, who had been raiding their lands. During his pursuit of the enemy, Gideon asked the people of Penuel for supplies and support, but they refused out of fear that the Midianites might return and punish them. After achieving victory, Gideon returned to Penuel and carried out retribution by destroying their defensive tower and killing the men, illustrating the harsh realities of ancient tribal conflicts and loyalty in wartime.
