#Judges 20

Then 400,000 men of #Israel prepared for war against Benjamin. They demanded the guilty men of Gibeah be given up for execution, but #Benjamin refused and prepared for war. Benjamin was winning at first. Israel sought #God, pretended to retreat, ambushed #Gibeah, and won the war. (v1-48)
