Judges 18:27-28
18:28 a Beth-rehob was perhaps an Aramean kingdom to the north (2 Sam 10:6 b). Nothing heroic, and no holy war, accrued to these Danite warriors who captured this defenseless city. Dan fulfilled Jacob’s mixed blessing by turning from the high calling of governing his people (Gen 49:16 c) to becoming “a snake beside the road, a poisonous viper along the path that bites the horse’s hooves so its rider is thrown off” (Gen 49:17 d).
