Genesis 37:28,36 Exodus 2:15-21 Numbers 22:4-7 Numbers 25:9 Joshua 13:21,22 Numbers 31:8 2 Peter 2:15[[Sihon]] <p> Some two hundred and fifty years after this the [[Midianites]] had regained their ancient power, and in confederation with the [[Amalekites]] and the "children of the east" they made war against their old enemies the Israelites, whom for seven years they oppressed and held in subjection. They were at length assailed by [[Gideon]] in that ever-memorable battle in the great plain of Esdraelon, and utterly destroyed (Jud ( Judges 7 ). Frequent allusions are afterwards made to this great victory ( Psalm 83:10,12; Isaiah 9:4; 10:6 ). They now wholly pass away from the page of history both sacred and profane. </p> | |||
