Today's reading from Judges 10-11

King James Version with Web Encyclopedia links: Judges 10; Judges 11

Division of the Land
Tribal Lands

Judges 10 deals with the story of Jephthah and Five Other Judges. Tola was a judge who led Israel for twenty three years (v. 1-2). Jair was another judge who had thirty sons who rode thirty donkeys. Between both of them they had forty five yers of peace.

The Story of Jephthah centers around Judges 10.6-18; 11; 12.1-7.
Because of peace, the people forgot God. In Judges 10.6-18 The Israelites sinned by worshiping Baals, Ashtoreths and other gods. God gave them over to the Philistines and the Ammonites. There are two types of confession given in Judges 11. The first confession in 10 is not genuine, originating from the people suffering. God refused to forgive them (v. 11-14). The second confession of sin is genuine, it was a 180 degree turn, they got rid of the foreign gods among them and serve the Lord..
