Context Readings

Gideon Pursues Zebah And Zalmunna

25 And they said, We will, freely give. So they spread out a mantle, and cast therein, every man the nose-ring of his spoil. 26 And so it was, that the weight of the nose-rings of gold which he requested, was a thousand and seven hundred shekels of gold, - besides the crescents, and the pendants, and the raiment of purple that were upon the kings of Midian, and besides the ornaments that were on the necks of their camels. 27 And Gideon made thereof an Ephod, and set it up in his own city, in Ophrah, and all Israel went unchastely astray after it there, - so it became, to Gideon and to his house, a snare.
