St. Joseph Bible Studies presents:
Historical Books I: Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1 and 2 Samuel
After Moses’ death, Joshua leads the Israelites into the Promised Land, but the journey seems to continue for the Israelites who encounter new struggles and ambitions. In some ways their expectations were realized, although perhaps not how they envisioned.
Their story is our story in a different context. In this 8-week study, we are reminded that God is faithful to the covenant, but the people have difficulty grasping what God is doing in them, and how large God’s vision is. How might we understand the battles that God fought in Jericho and beyond on behalf of the Israelite people? Why does the story of a Moabite woman get recorded in these texts and in the genealogy of Jesus? How do the kingships of David and Saul differ? As you journey with the Israelites through these narratives of glory and woe, look carefully— for you might even catch a glimpse of your own story as God continues to make you anew.
