Judges Overview
Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
In this overview of the book of Judges, Steve Gregg highlights the unique nature of this Old Testament book, which features a series of heroes who rose to power in times of crisis. Without a centralized government or king, Israel was governed by charismatic leaders whom God raised up to deliver the people. Gregg also draws parallels between the period of the judges and the early church, arguing that institutionalized leadership can be detrimental to the spiritual health of a community. Ultimately, the book of Judges teaches that faithful leadership and obedience to God's law are crucial for the well-being of society.
