Micah’s Idolatry

1 Now there was a man from the mountains of Ephraim, whose name was aMicah.  
2 And he said to his mother, “The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you, and on which you aput a curse, even saying it in my ears—here is the silver with me; I took it.” And his mother said, b“May you be blessed by the Lord, my son!”  
3 So when he had returned the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, his mother said, “I had wholly dedicated the silver from my hand to the Lord for my son, to amake a carved image and a molded image; now therefore, I will return it to you.”

Judges 17:1

There was, etc. - The things mentioned here, and in the following chapters, did not happen in the order in which they are put; but much sooner, even presently after the death of the elders that over - lived Joshua, as appears, because Phinehas the son of Eleazar was priest at this time, Judges 20:28, who must have been about 350 years old, if this had been done after Samson's death.
