Description

This definitive volume, A Commentary on Judges and Ruth, sheds exegetical and theological light on the books of Judges and Ruth for contemporary preachers and students of Scripture.

Listening closely to the text while interacting with the best of scholarship, Chisholm shows what the text mean for ancient Israel and what it means for us today. In addition to its perceptive comments on the biblical text, it examines a host of themes such as covenants and the sovereignty of God in Judges and providence, redemption, loving-kindness, and Christological typology in Ruth.
