This verse concludes the tragic story of Abimelech, the son of Gideon, who sought to establish himself as king through deceit and violence. Despite his wickedness, Abimelech faced the judgment of God for his evil deeds, as seen in his death at the hands of a woman who dropped a millstone on his head. The downfall of Abimelech serves as a reminder of the consequences of pride, treachery, and seeking power through unrighteous means. It also highlights the faithfulness of God in executing justice and vindicating the innocent, even in the midst of human corruption and sin.
