THE JUDGES OF ISRAEL
Leaders Between Moses and the Kings
Between the time of Moses and the rise of Israel's monarchy, the nation was guided by a unique group of leaders known as the judges. The Judges of Israel explores their role in delivering God's people, maintaining justice, and calling the nation back to faithfulness.
