Judges 1:1-3:6; Judges 17:1-13

The pattern of partial conquest continues. Manasseh did not drive out all of the Canaanites (Judges 1:27). The Israelis might have removed the native peoples altogether, but no! They enslaved native peoples, instead (Judges 1:28). They did (enslavement) as Egypt had done to them. 

All previous warnings come to pass: Israelis intermarry with native peoples, and they worship other gods (Judges 3:6)

How many times have I been warned and yet do the very things named in the warning?

Lord, have mercy!
