Description: The Church has a problem with Judges, it is so earthy, puzzling, primitive and violent - so much so that the Church can barely stomach it. It falls under the category 'embarrassing scripture'. Such an attitude is, of course, wrong so Ralph Davis here makes Judges digestible by analysing the major literary and theological themes discovered in each section, providing a 'theocentric' exposition.
'an excellent... crisp, lively... exposition on Judges'
- Bibliotheca Sacra
'the most practical expository work that this reviewer has ever encountered'
- Southwestern Journal of Theology
'Dr. Davis has a great sense of fun. He must often have his class or his congregation in stitches!'
- Christian Arena
'a great feast of biblical truth made so digestible, garnished with so many apt illustrations.'
