* And Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem unto his mothers brethren , and communed with them , and with all the family of the house of his mothers father , saying , * Speak , I pray you , in the ears of all the men of Shechem , Whether is better for you , either that all the sons of Jerubbaal Y @rubba #al #, which are threescore and ten persons , reign over you , or that one reign over you ? remember also that I am your bone and your flesh . * And his mothers brethren spake of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words : and their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech ; for they said , He is our brother .
