Mum had eleven hundred pieces of silver stolen and put a curse on whoever took it. So, yeah. It was me. Gave it back. She had some of it made into an idol. So now I've got a shrine.

Got my own shrine. And my own priest.
I live in the hill country of Ephraim. Not Micah the prophet; that’s centuries later. I have a shrine at home, with an ephod, household gods, and an idol my mother had made. For a while one of my sons was the priest. Then a Levite turned up.

Hired a Levite as my priest. Ten pieces of silver a year, plus clothes and food. Now I know the LORD will be good to me.
The Danites walked off with my gods and my priest. Went after them, and they asked what my problem was. What have I got left? They told me to keep my voice down, or some angry men might go for me and my family. They were too strong for me. Went home.
The young Levite@levite.for.hireGot offered a step up: priest to a whole tribe instead of one man's house. Didn't need asking twice. Took the idol and went.
