Did the Israelites worship the false gods of the people of the land of Canaan? Judges 3:6
- A.
  
  Yes
- B.

After God allowed a foreign King (King Cushan Rishathaim of Aram Naharaim) to defeat and rule over Israel for 8 years, who did he send to help them when Israel cried out to him? Judges 3:7-9
- A.
  
  Caleb
- B.
  
  Othniel, Caleb's younger brother
- C.
  
  Jesus
Correct Answer
B. Othniel, Caleb's younger brother

Explanation
After the foreign King Cushan Rishathaim of Aram Naharaim defeated and ruled over Israel for 8 years, God sent Othniel, Caleb's younger brother, to help them when Israel cried out to Him. This can be inferred from Judges 3:7-9, where it is mentioned that the Israelites served Cushan Rishathaim because they had abandoned God's commandments. When they repented and cried out to God, He raised up Othniel as a deliverer to save them from their oppressor. Othniel's relationship to Caleb is significant because Caleb was a faithful and respected leader among the Israelites, making Othniel a suitable candidate for delivering the people.
