Old Testament Judges

Joshua Canaan was a picture of the heavenly place which God has prepared for us and for which Christ has secured our entry

Joshua We see Jesus in the Old Testament in a few ways: Promise Shadow or type Literally

Joshua We see Jesus in the Old Testament in a few ways: Promise: Gen 3:15 – the promise of Eve’s offspring crushing the head of Satan Shadow or type: the tabernacle is a picture (shadow) of Christ. The sacrificial lamb is a shadow Literally: Joshua saw Christ, the captain of the Lord’s host

Joshua Consider the reasonableness of God’s methods. The bronze serpent The Jericho battle plan Christ’s sacrifice The Lord’s Supper Confession and Absolution Baptism

Joshua Consider why the conquest of the land was needed. Why was it really necessary to destroy all of the inhabitants?

Joshua Consider the stoning of Achan. Was that harsh? Israelites were killed when they attempted to take Ai. Not realizing Achan’s sin, they thought that God was with them.

We are here

Judges – Chapter 2 2 Now the angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said, “I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land which I have sworn to your fathers; and I said, ‘I will never break My covenant with you, 2 and as for you, you shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall tear down their altars.’ But you have not obeyed Me; what is this you have done? 3 Therefore I also said, ‘I will not drive them out before you; but they will become as thorns in your sides and their gods will be a snare to you.’” 4 When the angel of the Lord spoke these words to all the sons of Israel, the people lifted up their voices and wept. 5 So they named that place Bochim; and there they sacrificed to the Lord.

Judges – Chapter 2 6 When Joshua had dismissed the people, the sons of Israel went each to his inheritance to possess the land. 7 The people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who survived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of the Lord which He had done for Israel. 8 Then Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died at the age of one hundred and ten. 9 And they buried him in the territory of his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash. 10 All that generation also were gathered to their fathers; and there arose another generation after them who did not know the Lord, nor yet the work which He had done for Israel.

Judges – Chapter 2 11 Then the sons of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord and served the Baals, 12 and they forsook the Lord, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods from among the gods of the peoples who were around them, and bowed themselves down to them; thus they provoked the Lord to anger. 13 So they forsook the Lord and served Baal and the Ashtaroth. 14 The anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and He gave them into the hands of plunderers who plundered them; and He sold them into the hands of their enemies around them, so that they could no longer stand before their enemies.

Judges – Chapter 2 15 Wherever they went, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had spoken and as the Lord had sworn to them, so that they were severely distressed. 16 Then the Lord raised up judges who delivered them from the hands of those who plundered them. 17 Yet they did not listen to their judges, for they played the harlot after other gods and bowed themselves down to them. They turned aside quickly from the way in which their fathers had walked in obeying the commandments of the Lord; they did not do as their fathers.

Judges – Chapter 2 18 When the Lord raised up judges for them, the Lord was with the judge and delivered them from the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the Lord was moved to pity by their groaning because of those who oppressed and afflicted them. 19 But it came about when the judge died, that they would turn back and act more corruptly than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them and bow down to them; they did not abandon their practices or their stubborn ways.

Judges – Chapter 2 20 So the anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and He said, “Because this nation has transgressed My covenant which I commanded their fathers and has not listened to My voice, 21 I also will no longer drive out before them any of the nations which Joshua left when he died, 22 in order to test Israel by them, whether they will keep the way of the Lord to walk in it as their fathers did, or not.” 23 So the Lord allowed those nations to remain, not driving them out quickly; and He did not give them into the hand of Joshua.

Judges Chapter 2 provides a summary of the book The tribes of Israel forgot God Sinned by following false gods Were judged by the hand of a foreign enemy Cried out for help from God Were saved by a “Judge” which God raised up for that purpose

Judges Judges 3:9; 6:36,37; 7:7; 10:13 These verses speak to a common theme: Judges 3:9, “When the sons of Israel cried to the Lord, the Lord raised up a deliverer for the sons of Israel to deliver them.”

Judges Judges 2:11, “Then the sons of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord and served the Baals.” Serving false gods is the chief sin of the Israelites. Just as God warned, they were lead into false religion by the inhabitants of the land. The refrain is repeated six times (Judges 3:7, 12; 4:1; 6:1; 10:6; 13:1)

Judges What is the significance of the number six? Six is one less than seven. Seven is the number of completeness or perfection. Thus, the life of Israel is incomplete without a king.

Judges In Judges, we see the need for a king for Israel. A king is needed to unify the tribes of Israel for battle with foreign nations as well as for observance of all that God has commanded. Judges gives us a vivid image of how despicable the Israelites would be without a leader.

Judges Excerpt from “Prepare the Way of the Lord.” “The book of Judges is not a memorial to Israel’s heroes of yesteryear as much as it is a testimony to Yahweh’s gracious resolve to preserve his people by answering their cries of distress and providing for their salvation.”

Judges Excerpt from “Prepare the Way of the Lord.” Judges 2:11 – 3:9 is the theological center of the book. Its message may be illustrated using: A – Apostasy B – Battering C – Crying out D – Deliverance
