'Control' in the Bible

The Israelites again did evil in the Lord's sight. The Lord gave King Eglon of Moab control over Israel because they had done evil in the Lord's sight.

The Lord's spirit took control of Gideon. He blew a trumpet, summoning the Abiezrites to follow him.

Now Gideon sent messengers throughout the Ephraimite hill country who announced, "Go down and head off the Midianites. Take control of the fords of the streams all the way to Beth Barah and the Jordan River." When all the Ephraimites had assembled, they took control of the fords all the way to Beth Barah and the Jordan River.

The Lord's spirit began to control him in Mahaneh Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol.
