Caleb and Joshua are honored because they led the people of
Israel into the promised land (46:8)
Ben Sira also honors the “judges.” The judges were men and
women set apart to help the 12 tribes of Israel stay on track. They aren’t
judges who wear long black robes and hang out in courtrooms. They are local
elders chosen by God’s Spirit to lead Israel in times of crisis.
We all need people to help us in times of crisis. Who are
the “judges” in your life?
