Thematic Bible: Lie in wait to commit


Thematic Bible



He waits in ambush near the villages; he kills the innocent in secret places; his eyes are on the lookout for the helpless. He lurks in secret like a lion in a thicket. He lurks in order to seize the afflicted. He seizes the afflicted and drags him in his net. He crouches and bends down; the helpless fall because of his strength.

Like raiders who wait in ambush for someone,
a band of priests murders on the road to Shechem.
They commit atrocities.
