Meaning of LEHI

"Jaw".
Height of the country of Judah (Judges 15:9, 11, 13). The Philistines occupied it to seize Samson. Lehi's name comes from the steep, jagged cliffs, which resemble a jawbone, or from Samson's feat with the donkey's jawbone.

"Jaw".
Height of the country of Judah (Judges 15:9, 11, 13). The Philistines occupied it to seize Samson. Lehi's name comes from the steep, jagged cliffs, which resemble a jawbone, or from Samson's feat with the donkey's jawbone.

In any case, the place where Samson defeated the Philistines, and where he cast the jawbone that had served as his weapon, was called Ramat-lehi, "hill of the jawbone" (Judg. 15:17).

The gospel is good news, and God will give them the peace they need to submit to Him.

The Message of Christmas

Charles Stanley

One of the messages that we learn from the Christmas story is that of peace. While God might appear overwhelming at times, He always wants to give us the assurance that with Him, peace reigns, even in the announcement of His Son’s birth.

Why is this analogy important to us today? It is because we are the sheep and Jesus is the Shepherd.

The Voice of the Shepherd

Charles Stanley

Where the Real Power Resides
