About this episode
The episode explores the historical context of Eli's high priesthood in Israel during the tumultuous period of the Judges.
Time to climb aboard our time machine and leave the year 2026 for a time over a thousand years before Christ, the time when Eli was high priest in Israel during the period of the Judges (read all about in 1 Samuel). The land is in turmoil yet again: the Philistines immediately west of us are threatening attack and everyone is afraid.
