ABIMELECH’S FALL

Judges 9:22-57

Abimelech’s Fall

Gideon’s illegitimate son killed 69 of his half brothers in Ophrah and returned to Shechem to be acclaimed king. But three years later, Shechem rebelled. From Arumah, Abimelech attacked Shechem, Beth-millo (“the tower of Shechem”), and Thebez, where he was killed.
