It was in the valley that belongs to Beth Rehob. So they rebuilt the city and dwelt there. 29 They called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel. However, the name of the city formerly was Laish. NKJV WHAT DID MICAH DO? WORSHIPPED IDOLS? WHAT DID THE PEOPLE OF DAN DO? WHY? WHAT DID THE NAME THE CITY? LAISH? IS THIS THE CITY? LESHEM?
