Rash vows (Judg 11:30-31)
Aaron’s rod that budded was placed inside the Ark of the Covenant alongside the tablets of the Law and the jar of manna (Heb 9:4). Three objects, one box.
The only prophet who was active BOTH before and after death. His ghost at Endor accurately predicted Saul’s death the next day.
A Canaanite prostitute is in the Hall of Faith (Hebrews 11) AND the genealogy of Christ. Her scarlet cord parallels the Passover blood on the doorposts.

At 85: “I am still as strong today as the day Moses sent me out; I’m just as vigorous to go out to battle now as I was then” (Josh 14:11). Then he conquered the giants.
The most agonizing story in Judges. Whether he actually sacrificed her or dedicated her to lifelong virginity is debated. Either way, his rash vow destroyed what he loved most.
