Judges 3:2 in Context — Judges 3
1 Voici les nations que l’Éternel laissa pour éprouver par elles Israël, tous ceux qui n’avaient pas connu toutes les guerres de Canaan.
2 Il voulait seulement que les générations des enfants d’Israël connussent et apprissent la guerre, ceux qui ne l’avaient pas connue auparavant.
3 Ces nations étaient: les cinq princes des Philistins, tous les Cananéens, les Sidoniens, et les Héviens qui habitaient la montagne du Liban, depuis la montagne de Baal-Hermon jusqu’à l’entrée de Hamath.
4 Ces nations servirent à mettre Israël à l’épreuve, afin que l’Éternel sût s’ils obéiraient aux commandements qu’il avait prescrits à leurs pères par Moïse.
