Abraham’s 318 Defeat Five Kings

Did You Know Abraham Defeated Five Kings With Just a Handful of Men? Did you know that

Abraham—long before he was called the father of many nations—won one of the most shocking military

victories in ancient history? The Bible records a moment when five powerful kings,

backed by massive armies, swept through the land, crushing cities

and taking captives. Among the prisoners was Lot, Abraham’s nephew. When the news reached

Abraham, he did not panic. He did not negotiate. He did not wait for reinforcements.

Abraham gathered only 318 trained servants, men born in his household—not soldiers

from nations, not seasoned generals. Just loyal servants and an unshakable trust in God.
