Judges recounts the dark days when everyone did what was right in his own eyes, and the recurring cycle of apostasy, oppression, crying out, and rescue through the judges God raised up. This study sets forth God’s patience and justice toward a faithless people and the deep longing it creates for the righteous King who reigns now over his church.
