Daniel Agee leads an exploration into a couple of centuries of the first judges, or leaders, of Israel — Yehoshua (Joshua), Othniel, Ehud and Shamgar — after Moshe (Moses) and at the start of the conquest of Canaan. From the very beginning, Israel allowed itself to be corrupted. (See Judges 3:6-7.)
