Synopsis

Following Joshua's conquest to the time of the judges

• Study the land in which the stories of Joshua, Judges, and Ruth took place
• Learn how geographic and cultural factors can provide theological insights
• Visualize the promised land through full-color maps and photos

Joshua led Israel to conquer a real historic land, and the judges delivered Israel from real historic enemies. When we understand geographic and cultural features of the Bible, we experience its stories with fresh eyes.

• Why did Joshua attack the cities he did?
• Why are Dan and Beersheba so regularly paired?
• What is the significance of Samson's battles in the Shephelah?

Written by a team of experts on biblical geography and culture, the Lexham Geographic Commentary on the Historical Books, Volume 1, is a guide to the world of Israel in the promised land. Each article addresses a particular story, event, or subject in Judges through Ruth, with full-color maps and photos providing deeper layers of context. Historical and cultural insights give readers a richer understanding of the biblical story.
