Interesting Correlations

After Dr. Grant's lecture on the Judges, I did some research to figure out which judges came from which tribes, and which judges shared a "tribal mother" with the other tribes that fought the same enemies.

Interestingly, all of the tribes who fought the Canaanites were descended of either Leah or her handmaiden, Zilpah, except for Ephraim.
