There was a man named Manoah from Zorah, from the Danite tribe. His wife was infertile and childless.

So six hundred Danites, fully armed, set out from Zorah and Eshtaol.

From Dan there were 28,600 men prepared for battle.

In those days Israel had no king. And in those days the Danite tribe was looking for a place to settle, because at that time they did not yet have a place to call their own among the tribes of Israel.

The Danites worshiped the carved image. Jonathan, descendant of Gershom, son of Moses, and his descendants served as priests for the tribe of Dan until the time of the exile.
