Disaster

About This Novel

When Gideon died, the world was in chaos. Gideon married several times and left behind a large family when he died. As soon as the father was buried, the sons began to quarrel over who should succeed their father. One of them, Abimelech, was particularly ambitious. He dreamed of becoming the king of all the Jews, and thought he was qualified to do so. However, it is difficult for such a young man to be appreciated by those who are familiar with him. So Abimelech left home and went to his mother's hometown, the village of Shechem. There he plotted to seize the throne but had no funds. The people of Shechem knew that if he succeeded in seizing the throne, they would be profitable, so they lent him money. He used the money to hire professional assassins and instigated them to murder his own brothers. In just one night, almost all of Abimelech's brothers were killed, and only the youngest, Jotham, escaped.
