How easily they conquered Laish (<a class="bibleref" title="Judg.18.27-Judg.18.29" href="/passage/?search=Judg.18.27-Judg.18.29">Jdg. 18:27-29</a>), and, when they had it, set up the graven image in it, <a class="bibleref" title="Judg.18.30,Judg.18.31" href="/passage/?search=Judg.18.30,Judg.18.31"><span class="bibleref" title="Judg.18.30">Jdg. 18:30</span>, <span class="bibleref" title="Judg.18.31">31</span></a>.</p>
