The story of Adoni-Bezek having his thumbs and big toes cut off (as he had done to others)
King Adoni-Bezek used to cut off the thumbs and big toes of the kings he captured. Then the tribe of Judah caught him and returned the favor (Judges 1:6-7). “As I have done, so God has repaid me,” he said.
Seems like a pretty straightforward case of reaping what you sow—though I doubt he left a five-star review for the pedicure.
What do you think? Did he get exactly what he had coming, or was the punishment too much? Drop a comment below—I’d love to hear your take.
