Ep.103 Shamgar
In this episode, we uncover the fascinating story of Shamgar, a lesser-known but mighty figure from Judges 3:31. Was he truly an Israelite judge or a foreign mercenary used by God? Join us as we explore his possible Hurrian or Canaanite roots, his ties to Egypt, and his epic stand against the Philistines, early Sea Peoples of Aegean descent. Through historical insights and biblical context, we reveal how Shamgar may have brought peace to Israel in a time of chaos. Don’t miss this deep dive into ancient history, biblical mystery, and divine providence.
