Judges 1:36
34 The Amorites forced the Danites into the hill country and did not allow them to come down into the plain.
35 And the Amorites were determined to dwell in Mount Heres, Aijalon, and Shaalbim. But when the house of Joseph grew in strength, they pressed the Amorites into forced labor.
And the border of the Amorites extended from the Ascent of Akrabbim to Sela and beyond.
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.
