The death of Gid’on

Hero 8:29–35

8:29 The death of Gid’on

29 Then Gid’on (Yoash’s son, also known as Yeruba’al) went back and lived in his house, 30 and he fathered seventy sons because he had many wives. 31 He also had a mistress in Shekem—she also bore him a son that he named Avimelek. 32 Gid’on died at a good old age and was buried in the tomb of Yoash his father, at Ofrah of the Abiezerites.

33 However after Gid’on had died, the Israelis turned away again from Yahweh and prostituted themselves to the Baals—making Ba’al-Berit for themselves as a god. 34 They forgot about their god Yahweh—the one who had rescued them from the clutch of all of their enemies all around. 35 They didn’t show lasting loyalty to Gid’on’s family, despite all the good that he’d done within Yisrael (Israel).
