Victory and Defeat in the Promised Land Judges 19:1-30

We come to the last three chapters of the book of Judges, and what started out with Israel disobeying God, receiving the consequences of that disobedience, and The Lord having mercy on them by raising up a deliverer for them, has now turned into complete depravity and darkness. For Chapters 19-21 are grim and gruesome chapters that give dramatic lessons both personally and nationally of what happens when we turn our backs on God.
