Context of Judges 2:10

8Then Joshua son of Nun, the servant of Adonai, died at the age of 110 years, 9and they buried him in the territory of his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the hill country of Ephraim north of Mount Gaash. But when all that generation were gathered to their fathers, there arose another generation after them that did not experience Adonai or the work that He had done for Israel. 11Then Bnei-Yisrael did what was evil in Adonai’s eyes, and worshipped the Baalim. 12They abandoned Adonai, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods from among the gods of the peoples around them, and bowed down to them. So they provoked the anger of Adonai.
