Joshua, Judges, and Ruth by A Graeme Auld

Joshua, Judges, and Ruth by A Graeme Auld

A. Graeme Auld examines the key biblical books detailing early Israel's history, from the conquest under Joshua to the period of judges. The three books studied in this volume constitute the principal biblical witness to Israel’s early history in her land. According to A. Graeme Auld, "they tell the story of how under Joshua the land was first taken by Israel and then apportioned to her various tribes. They tell how after Joshua there was a long period of ups and downs; of religious apostasy within the community and repeated harassment from abroad answered by a series of divinely impelled 'judges' or 'Deliverers.' They offer some samples of life in Israel, 'in the days when the Judges ruled' or 'when there was not yet a king in Israel.'" The Daily Study Bible series seamlessly continues the legacy of William Barclay’s renowned New Testament series by delving into the texts of the Old Testament, weaving together ancient wisdom and modern insights for a transformative reading experience. Perfectly tailored for individual study, spirited group discussions, or classroom exploration, the Daily Study Bible series offers an indispensable resource for spiritual seekers and scholars alike. Within these volumes, readers will encounter a profound exploration of the Scriptures, uncovering the profound messages they held in the past and discerning their relevance in the present.

A. Graeme Auld, well-known Old Testament scholar and author of numerous books, is Professor of Hebrew Bible at the University of Edinburgh School of Divinity in Edinburgh, Scotland.
