Is. 3:1‑8• 1Porque he aquí que el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos quita de Jerusalem y de Judá el sustentador y el fuerte, todo sustento de pan y todo socorro de agua;
 2El valiente y el hombre de guerra, el juez y el profeta, el adivino y el anciano;
 3El capitán de cincuenta, y el hombre de respeto, y el consejero, y el artífice excelente, y el hábil orador.

• They had no sense of the unity of the people. Gilead made of himself a party. The authority and guidance of the Spirit of God were but little known, for they said: "What man is he?" They had only another step to make-to choose for themselves; this step they took in vs. 4-11 of the following chapter. Not that Jephthah was not raised up of God, but Gilead took part in the choice. How widely different was this from the call of Gideon. (“Fresh Declension and Fresh Revivals: a Fresh Revival in Israel: Judges 10:6-18” by H.L. Rossier)
