#30: Judges 9: The Tale of the Bramble King
Manage episode 439658449 series 3591039
Today we consider a story told by Jotham when Abimelek, the son of Gideon, tries to establish himself as king.
We look at Jotham's parable of the trees, which serves as Judges' polemic on the dangers of worldly leadership and sheds light on the problem of Israel's request for a king in 1 Samuel. Join as we explore what leadership means under God.
