“Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.”
King James Version (KJV)
15:3 Now Israel - They have long lived without the found knowledge and worship of the true God. Israel is here understood of the whole nation of Israel in former times, and especially in the times of the judges: for then many times they were in a great measure, without God and his law, and teaching priests, as plainly appears from the book of the Judges; they were brought to all the exigencies and calamities following; and they sometimes turned to the Lord, and he was found of them.
Now for a long season Israel hath bene without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
