Show Notes

After Joshua's leadership, the period of the Judges began in Israel. During this time, the Israelites faced a cycle of apostasy, oppression by neighboring nations, repentance, and deliverance through judges whom God raised up. The book of Judges in the Bible recounts the stories of various judges who led the Israelites during this period.

 

Each of these judges, despite differences in circumstances and experiences, points toward Jesus. We examine the stories of Othniel, Shamgar, Gideon, Deborah, Jephthah, and Abimelech. We also reference Samson and a few other lesser known judges.
