“The judges also,
With their respective names,
Were holy famous men.
Their hearts did not fall
Into idolatry.
They did not turn away
From the Lord.
May their memory be blessed!
May their bones send forth new life
Where they lie!
May the names of those
Who have been honored
Live again in their children!”
Sirach does not name any specific judges in his praise of these judges to whom a whole book of the Hebrew Bible describes in some detail, Judges. They did not fall into idolatry, since they did not turn away from the Lord. Their memory should be blessed. Their bones should bring life to where they have been placed. Their names should be honored, as they live again in their children. Despite this plea to honor their names, Sirach does not mention any one particular name of a judge, even though the whole institution of judges was held in high esteem.

I’m impressed, I have to say. Really rarely do I encounter a weblog that’s both educative and entertaining, and let me inform you, you may have hit the nail on the head. Your thought is excellent; the difficulty is one thing that not enough people are speaking intelligently about. I am very completely happy that I stumbled across this in my search for one thing regarding this.
