My Name Is Othniel...
The First Judge of Israel
Dear Faithful Followers of the Lord,
I am Othniel, son of Kenaz, nephew and son-in-law to Caleb, one of the faithful spies who trusted in God’s promise to deliver Canaan into our hands. As the first judge of Israel, my story is a testament to God’s faithfulness and His power to use willing hearts to deliver His people. It is my hope that my journey will strengthen your faith and encourage you to trust in God’s providence, no matter the trials you face.
Born into the tribe of Judah during our wanderings in the wilderness, I grew up hearing the stories of our ancestors’ deliverance from Egypt, their failures and their triumphs. These stories shaped my understanding of who God is—a faithful provider and deliverer, even when His people falter.
