Judges Ten - Riding Asses


"After him arose Jair, a Gileadite; and he judged Israel twenty-two years. Now he had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys; they also had thirty towns, which are called 'Havoth Jair' to this day, which are in the land of Gilead. And Jair died and was buried in Camon," Judges 10:4-5, NKJV. #RidingAsses
While most people think the horse was the most noble form of transportation in ancient times, the donkey, which is called an "ass" in the original English translation, held far more prestige; they came in several different colors, including white, and many patriarchs, prophets and even the Lord Jesus Christ, rode them.
