The book of Judges candidly records that the tribe of Asher could not dispossess the Phoenician cities along its coastal allotment — Acco Sidon Ahlab Achzib Helbah Aphik and Rehob — and ended up living among the Canaanites rather than the reverse.
Judges 1 catalogs in painful detail how the tribes that did not finish the conquest of Canaan slowly compromised with the inhabitants they had been commanded to drive out. After the relative success of Judah and Simeon in the south, the chapter moves north and records the failure of one northern tribe after another: Manasseh, Ephraim, Zebulun, Naphtali, Dan — and Asher.
