Gideon made the gold into an ephod, which he placed in Ophrah, his town. All Israel prostituted themselves by worshiping it there, and it became a snare to Gideon and his family.

Gideon made an object out of all the gold. It looked like the linen apron the high priest of Israel wore. Gideon placed it in Ophrah. That was his hometown. All the Israelites worshiped it there. They weren’t faithful to the Lord. So the gold object became a trap to Gideon and his family.

And Gideon made an ephod of it and put it in his city, in Ophrah. And all Israel whored after it there, and it became a snare to Gideon and to his family.

Gideon made a sacred ephod from the gold and put it in Ophrah, his hometown. But soon all the Israelites prostituted themselves by worshiping it, and it became a trap for Gideon and his family.

Gideon made an ephod out of it, and put it in Ophrah, his city. Then all Israel played the prostitute with it there; and it became a snare to Gideon and to his house.

The five men who had gone to spy out the land of Laish said to their kinsmen,“ Do you realize that inside these houses are an ephod, some personal idols, a carved image, and a metal image? Decide now what you want to do.”

Now this man Micah owned a shrine. He made an ephod and some personal idols and hired one of his sons to serve as a priest.

They were defiled by their deeds, and unfaithful in their actions.

The five men who had gone to spy out the land broke in and stole the carved image, the ephod, the personal idols, and the metal image, while the priest was standing at the entrance to the gate with the six hundred fully armed men.

You must destroy all the people whom the LORD your God is about to deliver over to you; you must not pity them or worship their gods, for that will be a snare to you.

Gideon built an altar for the LORD there, and named it“ The LORD is on friendly terms with me.” To this day it is still there in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

They must not live in your land, lest they make you sin against me, for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”

Gideon son of Joash died at a very old age and was buried in the tomb of his father Joash located in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.After Gideon died, the Israelites again prostituted themselves to the Baals. They made Baal-Berith their god.

Then you must recall the LORD’s instructions and the prophetic testimony of what would happen. Certainly they say such things because their minds are spiritually darkened.

Yes, look! Those far from you die; you destroy everyone who is unfaithful to you.

But you must seek only the place he chooses from all your tribes to establish his name as his place of residence, and you must go there.

Plead earnestly with your mother( for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband), so that she might put an end to her adulterous lifestyle, and turn away from her sexually immoral behavior.

They consult their wooden idols, and their diviner’s staff answers with an oracle. The wind of prostitution blows them astray; they commit spiritual adultery against their God.They sacrifice on the mountaintops, and burn offerings on the hills; they sacrifice under oak, poplar, and terebinth, because their shade is so pleasant. As a result, your daughters have become cult prostitutes, and your daughters-in-law commit adultery!I will not punish your daughters when they commit prostitution, nor your daughters- in- law when they commit adultery. For the men consort with harlots, they sacrifice with temple prostitutes. It is true:“ A people that lacks understanding will come to ruin!”

The LORD’s angelic messenger came and sat down under the oak tree in Ophrah owned by Joash the Abiezrite. He arrived while Joash’s son Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress so he could hide it from the Midianites.

“ They are to make the ephod of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen, the work of an artistic designer.It is to have two shoulder pieces attached to two of its corners, so it can be joined together.The artistically woven waistband of the ephod that is on it is to be like it, of one piece with the ephod, of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen.“ You are to take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel,six of their names on one stone, and the six remaining names on the second stone, according to the order of their birth.You are to engrave the two stones with the names of the sons of Israel with the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a seal; you are to have them set in gold filigree settings.You are to put the two stones on the shoulders of the ephod, stones of memorial for the sons of Israel, and Aaron will bear their names before the LORD on his two shoulders for a memorial.You are to make filigree settings of goldand two braided chains of pure gold, like a cord, and attach the chains to the settings.“ You are to make a breastpiece for use in making decisions, the work of an artistic designer; you are to make it in the same fashion as the ephod; you are to make it of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twisted linen.It is to be square when doubled, nine inches long and nine inches wide.You are to set in it a setting for stones, four rows of stones, a row with a ruby, a topaz, and a beryl– the first row;and the second row, a turquoise, a sapphire, and an emerald;and the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;and the fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper.

Aaron is to bear the decisions of the Israelites over his heart before the LORD continually.“ You are to make the robe of the ephod completely blue.There is to be an opening in its top in the center of it, with an edge all around the opening, the work of a weaver, like the opening of a collar, so that it cannot be torn.You are to make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet all around its hem and bells of gold between them all around.The pattern is to be a gold bell and a pomegranate, a gold bell and a pomegranate, all around the hem of the robe.The robe is to be on Aaron as he ministers, and his sound will be heard when he enters the Holy Place before the LORD and when he leaves, so that he does not die.
