Battle of Gibeah was a biblical battle which could be considered as the only Israelite Civil War. The battle was triggered in response to an incident of gross inhospitality on part of the Tribe of Benjamin, in which a concubine belonging to a man from the Tribe of Levi was raped to death by a rowdy mob, after the Levite had offered his concubine to the mob in place of himself (who the mob originally sought to sodomize), and then locked the door for the night.

- Battle of Gibeah was a biblical battle which could be considered as the only Israelite Civil War. The battle was triggered in response to an incident of gross inhospitality on part of the Tribe of Benjamin, in which a concubine belonging to a man from the Tribe of Levi was raped to death by a rowdy mob, after the Levite had offered his concubine to the mob in place of himself (who the mob originally sought to sodomize), and then locked the door for the night. In the morning the Levite found his dead concubine at the door, and butchered her into twelve pieces, and sent the pieces throughout all the territory of Israel. The outraged tribes of Israel sought justice, and asked for the miscreants to be delivered for judgement. The Benjamites refused, so the tribes then sought vengeance, and in the subsequent war, the members of Tribe of Benjamin were systematically slaughtered, including women and children; when Benjamin was nearly 'extinguished', it was decided that the tribe should be allowed to survive, and all the men from another town (who had refused to take part in the killing) were slaughtered, so that their wives could be re-wed to the surviving men of Benjamin. The first king of Israel, Saul, descended from these men. Due to this war, the Tribe of Benjamin was subsequently referred to as "the smallest of all the tribes" .
