Judges

BIBLE EXPLORE / OLD TESTAMENT / JUDGES

Book of Judges

"After the death of Joshua, the people of Israel begin a downward spiral. Israel begins to adopt the corrupt practices of the Canaanites they failed to drive out of the land. This leads to a cycle of sin, oppression, repentance, deliverance, and peace, which eventually leads back to sin." Bible Project

The book of Judges tells the stories six judges, and the corruption and struggles with a lawless people. It ends with the worrying verse: "In those days Israel had no king, and everyone did what was right in their own eyes" Judges 17:6
