Samuel Judges Israel

1 Samuel 7:15-17

Sh'mu'el continued in office as judge of Isra'el as long as he lived.

Year by year he would travel in a circuit that included Beit-El, Gilgal and Mitzpah; and in all these places he served as judge over Isra'el.

Then he would return to Ramah, because that's where his home was, and he would judge Isra'el there too. He also built an altar there to ADONAI.
