Left-Handedness Rife
in Tribe of Benjamin
No passage In the Bible Justices
the common belief that all the de­
scendants of Benjamin were left­
handed. The tribe of Benjamin
was always the smallest of the
tribes of Israel and left-handed­
ness seems to have been more com­
mon among them than among other
people. Judges 20:15, 16 says:
"And the children of Benjamin were
numbered at that time out of the
cities twenty and six thousand
men that drew sword, beside the in­
habitants of Glbeah, which were
numbered seven hundred chosen
men. Among all this people there
were seven hundred chosen men
left-handed ; every one could sling
stones at a hair breadth, and not
miss.” Judges 3:15 says In part:
"But when the children of Israel
cried unto the Lord, the Lord
raised them up a deliverer, Ehud
the son of Gera, a Benjaminite, a
man left-handed." I Chron. 12:2
indicates that they were ambidex­
trous: “They were armed with
bows, and could use both the right
hand and the left In hurling stones
and shooting arrows out of a bow,
even of Saul’s brethren of Benja­
min.”—Pathfinder Magazine.
