The Children Who Forgot God

Select Reading Config

When a new generation of Israelites grew up, they did not know the God who had led their fathers out of Egypt. They began to worship the Canaanite idols called Baal and Ashtoreth. God was very sad and angry. He allowed the surrounding enemies to bully them. When the Israelites cried out in pain, God raised up judges to save them. But as soon as the judges died, the people would fall back into their old ways, caught in a cycle of sinning again and again.
