2. Samuelsbok 4,1

Da Ishbosjet, Sauls sønn, hørte at Abner var død i Hebron, mistet han motet, og hele Israel ble urolig.

2 Og Sauls sønn hadde to menn som var ledere for røverbander; den ene het Ba’ana og den andre het Rekab, sønner av Rimmon fra Beerot, av Benjamins barn (for Beerot regnes også som en del av Benjamin,

3 og Beerotittene flyktet til Gittajim og har bodd der som fremmede til denne dag).

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
