There is two book of Samuel, the first one is about Saul's reign and the second one about Samuel covering the reign of King David. Then we have two books named kings, in the first, it is narrate the rule of king Salomon, the temple that he built, his death and the divided kingdom.

The chapter 11  

  There is two different part in this chapter, Joshua's leading and Israel's Judges. In the first part, it explains the setting of each government for the 12 tribes of Israel. After Joshua's death, the situation becam worse because they started to worship other gods, Baal and Astarte, where the worshiping was dangerous for Hebrews because it was against God's covenants as murder a children, to have a sexual immorality. Then God turn them back and wait 40 years until that generation die.

The second part is about Israel's Judges, Judges were deliverers or ruler. At this period every single time Israel abandonned God and repented after to be enslaved, Judges protected them and delivered them. It is the cycle of sin. In Judges 4-5 it is the destruction of Jabin's army by a woman called Deborah. In judges 6-8 it is when God chose Gideon and destroyed the Midianites with just 300 men. Judges 7-16, periode of time of Samson, Who had a super strength, his wickness was his hair. He destroyed Philistines, I was betrayed by his wife who knew his wickness, he became enslaved by Philistines but he finished by killing 3000 people in toppling two pillar of the palace of the Philistines leader. The itw as the time of the last Judges Samuel, his mother gave him to a priest named Eli, Eli became corrupt then Samuel became the only and last leader.
