The Tribe Of Dan Seeks Territory

They had all they needed. They lived far away from the Sidonians and had nothing to do with any other people. 8 When they came back to their brothers at Zorah and Eshtaol, their brothers said to them, “What do you report?” 9 They said: Come and attack Laish. We saw the land, and it is very good. Do not stay here doing nothing. Enter and possess the land.
