The phrase “In those days there was no king in Israel” implies that the central problem was the lack of a king. Is that true?
We will review the three stories at the end of the Book of Judges: the story of Shimshon, the statue of Micah, and the story of the concubine in “Givah”. The central problem is – that everyone behaved as individuals and did not look at the nation as a collective, this is the true meaning of “there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his own eyes.”
