Overview

The books of Joshua and Judges provide religious perspective on Israel’s successes and failures from the time that Joshua led the Israelites after Moses’ death until the rise of the monarchy. The stories of these two books show how the God of Israel still guides the life of his people. In this rich and insightful commentary, Roland Faley draws out the Deuteronomistic thesis in Joshua and Judges—a people of faith, even if they wander, cannot fail.
