Judges 6:28-30

The Message

²⁸ Early in the morning, the people in town were shocked to find Baal’s altar torn down, the Asherah pole beside it chopped down, and the prime bull burning away on the altar that had been built.

²⁹ They kept asking, “Who did this?”

Questions and more questions, and then the answer: “Gideon son of Joash did it.”

³⁰ The men of the town demanded of Joash: “Bring out your son! He must die! Why, he tore down the Baal altar and chopped down the Asherah tree!”
