Judges 18:13 In-Context

11 So 600 men from the tribe of Dan started out from Zorah and Eshtaol. They were prepared for battle.

12 On their way they set up camp. Their camp was near Kiriath Jearim in Judah. That's why the place is called Mahaneh Dan to this very day. It's west of Kiriath Jearim.

13 From there they went to the hill country of Ephraim. They came to Micah's house.

14 Then the five men who had looked over the land of Laish spoke to the other members of their tribe. They said, "Don't you know that one of these houses has a sacred linen apron in it? Some statues of family gods are there. It also has two statues of other gods in it. One of them is made out of wood or stone. The other is made out of silver. Now you know what to do."

15 So they turned off the road and stopped there. They went to the house of the young Levite. He was at Micah's place. They greeted the young man.
