Judges 18:13 In-Context

11 So 600 men from the tribe of Dan, armed with weapons of war, set out from Zorah and Eshtaol.

12 They camped at a place west of Kiriath-jearim in Judah, which is called Mahaneh-dan to this day.

13 Then they went on from there into the hill country of Ephraim and came to the house of Micah.

14 The five men who had scouted out the land around Laish explained to the others, “These buildings contain a sacred ephod, as well as some household idols, a carved image, and a cast idol. What do you think you should do?”

15 Then the five men turned off the road and went over to Micah’s house, where the young Levite lived, and greeted him kindly.
