“The tribe of Asher also failed to take what God had apportioned for them. Each tribe who failed made it easier for the other tribes to also fail.” (Guzik)
“Whilst most of the tribes were able to occupy at least some part of their allotted territory, the tribe of Asher seems to have failed completely to dislodge the Canaanites.” (Cundall)
When I study history I’ve concluded fighting limited or peace-meal wars have never brought total victory. Joshua disposed of all the kings and their armies but if the Israelites wanted ALL of the promised land to themselves they should have completely driven out the whole population.
Let Asher be an example for all of us.
Galatians 5:9 A little leaven [a slight inclination to error, or a few false teachers] leavens the whole batch [it perverts the concept of faith and misleads the church].
The same can be said for sin, exposure and acceptance of it will cause failure to spread and sin to take root.
Society’s sins are spreading like wildfire. Are there any you find acceptable?
Blessings
