The tribe of Benjamin was guilty, but Israel dealt them an extreme judgement leaving only 600 men, also with an oath not to give them wives from their daughters! Jdg 21:1!
Jdg 21:3, and said, “O LORD GOD OF ISRAEL, WHY HAS THIS COME TO PASS IN ISRAEL, THAT TODAY THERE SHOULD BE ONE TRIBE MISSING IN ISRAEL?”
Pro 19:3 NLT, PEOPLE RUIN THEIR LIVES BY THEIR OWN FOOLISHNESS AND THEN ARE ANGRY AT THE LORD.
The LORD gave them a path to blessing if they obeyed, and a path of cursing if they forsook the LORD. It was their own choice! They did what was right in their own eyes!
Jdg 21:15, … THE LORD HAD MADE A VOID IN THE TRIBES OF ISRAEL.
Jdg 21:25, In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.
BLAMING THE LORD WAS EASIER THAN BLAMING THEMSELVES! BENJAMIN DID SURVIVE, BY SLAUGHTERING A CITY IN ISRAEL WHO DIDN’T JOIN THE FIGHT!
Jer 4:22, “For My people are foolish, They have not known Me. They are silly children, And they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, But to do good they have no knowledge.”
WITHOUT THE LORD FOOLISHNESS AND IGNORANCE IS KING TO PERVERTED MEN!
