Parental Warning - Because we are following the text, there are horrific details Erika talks about in this episode.
We've come to the end of Judges. The people have become like the nations around them (the author even lets us know that with his particular wording). One sinful act has become the actions of the entire nation.
The end feels empty and wrong. The reader is left wanting to start over with a new way to run the nation (Anyone willing to try and see what life is like with a king? Maybe that will be more successful.)
Even though the final story is heartbreaking - much like the majority of the book - Erika points out how we see God's chesed all over the place.
