Judges 20:24

"The children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until evening; and they asked of the LORD, saying, “Shall I again draw near to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother?” The LORD said, “Go up against him.”"

Key Reflection

The children's tears signify their repentance and earnest plea for divine guidance before embarking on another conflict. Despite their previous losses, they seek the Lord’s will, demonstrating a recognition that victory in battle ultimately depends on God’s intervention rather than human strength alone.
