This self-study guide covers two of the most exciting historical books in the Scriptures. Each book will enable you to see clearly how faithfulness to God brings peace and security. The book of Judges covers an unsettling time in Israel's history. Because they did not have a king, a series of judges shared the duty of ruling the land as civil and military leaders. The beautiful story of Ruth serves as a picture of God's sovereignty in redeeming and caring for His people.

The books in the Jensen Bible Self-Study Guide series are designed to provide you with a broader understanding of God’s Word. Offering historical context and background, author information, charts, and other helps, these books will equip you with a comprehensive reference tool you’ll return to often. Each study includes an opportunity for analysis, response, and further study in a response-oriented format. The thirty-nine books in this series are suitable for both personal and group use.
