 Our word for today comes from Judges chapter 19, verse 1. And it came to pass in those days when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite staying in the remote mountains of Ephraim that took for himself a concubine from Bethlehem in Judah. Now this is a phrase we see repeatedly. In those days when there was no king. What did that mean? Well, there was no king, no authority, there was no order. It was anarchy.
