Discovery BoxJudges 15:17-19 
Context15:17 When he finished speaking, he threw the jawbone down 1 and named that place Ramath Lehi. 2
15:18 He was very thirsty, so he cried out to the Lord and said, “You have given your servant 3 this great victory. But now must I die of thirst and fall into hands of the Philistines?” 4 15:19 So God split open the basin 5 at Lehi and water flowed out from it. When he took a drink, his strength 6 was restored and he revived. For this reason he named the spring 7 En Hakkore. 8 It remains in Lehi to this very day.
