What are the spiritual meanings of Judges 9:1-15?

When will the Israelites learn that wickedness only leads to destruction.
V 56 Thus God repaid the wickedness that Abimelek had done to his father by murdering his seventy brothers. 57 God also made the people of Shechem pay for all their wickedness.
