Judges 18:1

The Danites seek an inheritance, and in the journey enter into the house of Micah, and carry off his image and his priest: they take the city Laish, which they burn, build another in its place, and set up there Micah's graven image.

Judges 18:1. In those days there was no king in Israel— The exact period here referred to is uncertain; but it is generally supposed to have been before there was a judge in Israel, between the death of Joshua and the elders who survived him, and the time of Othniel, who was the first judge raised up for them by God. See Josephus, Antiq. lib. 5: cap. 2 and the note on the first verse of the former chapter. Houbigant renders the latter part of this verse, for not yet, even to this time, they had sufficient inheritance among the tribes of Israel. Instead of the tribe of the Danites, some would read a tribe, or family, &c.
